## Resource

Vermont’s long-standing suicide crisis just got a new lifeline: the Asha Clinic at UVM Medical Center, the first-of-its-kind outpatient facility focused exclusively on suicide prevention. Born from the grief of losing their son to suicide, Debra Lopez Gottesman and her husband founded the Four Pines Fund to make this dream real. Led by Dr. Craig Bryan, the clinic offers hands-on, individualized therapy designed to equip patients with practical survival skills—not just diagnoses. With specially outfitted rooms and a laser focus on actionable tools, it’s a bold, compassionate step toward preventing future tragedies and giving hope where it’s needed most.
