This is a curated national starting directory compiled by Red Star Foundation on 2026-10-17. It does not list every state, county, city, tribal, hospital, faith-based or private resource. A listed website is not confirmation of staffing, intake, eligibility, licensure or cost. Red Star Foundation does not operate these services. Survivors are not automatically eligible for VA, PSOB, scholarship or line-of-duty benefits because a death was a suicide.
