The organization's stated impact includes a statistically reported suicide every 4–5 days in Larimer County and an over 25% reduction in county suicide rates since 2023. EIN 84-1194619 confirms its U.S. nonprofit status; financial specifics (revenue, headcount, grant totals) are not disclosed in the available material.

Broad incumbents

• American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP): AFSP is the largest national suicide prevention nonprofit in the United States, funding research, advocacy, and community programs. ASP is a community-level affiliate-like organization running a similar portfolio of training, loss survivor support, and outreach in a defined geography, making AFSP a direct broad incumbent peer.
• National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI): NAMI is a large national grassroots mental health organization providing education, support groups, and advocacy. Its local affiliate model mirrors ASP's community-based delivery and education/training programming, though covering broader mental health rather than suicide specifically.
• Mental Health America (MHA): MHA is a national community-based nonprofit addressing the full spectrum of mental health needs including suicide prevention, with local affiliates, screening tools, and public education programs. Comparable in mission breadth and community-organization delivery model.

Direct peers

• The Trevor Project: The Trevor Project delivers crisis intervention and suicide prevention services for LGBTQ+ youth via phone, text, and chat, and provides education and training programs to schools and communities. Comparable to ASP's REPLY youth programming in mission and school-based delivery model.
• Jed Foundation (JED): JED is a national nonprofit focused on protecting youth mental health and preventing suicide, particularly through school and college-based programs. Directly comparable to ASP's REPLY school-based youth suicide prevention program and community coalition approach.
• Crisis Text Line: Crisis Text Line provides 24/7 crisis intervention via text message and supports community-based outreach and training. Operates in the same crisis intervention / suicide prevention mission space as ASP, though delivered through a different modality.
• SAVE (Suicide Awareness Voices of Education): SAVE is a national suicide prevention nonprofit offering education, training, and survivor support programs. Closely aligned with ASP's combination of public education, survivor services, and community-based training.
• 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (now 988): The 988 Lifeline is the federally funded national network of crisis call centers providing 24/7 suicide prevention support — directly referenced on ASP's homepage as a crisis referral destination. Operates in the same crisis intervention space but as a federal/contracted service rather than community nonprofit.
• Sources of Strength: Sources of Strength is a youth and young adult suicide prevention program that trains peer leaders in schools. Closely comparable to ASP's REPLY youth school-based model in delivery channel and population served.
• Yellow Ribbon Suicide Prevention Program: Yellow Ribbon is a community-based suicide prevention organization offering gatekeeper training, school programs, and awareness campaigns. Operates in an adjacent Colorado/regional footprint with a portfolio nearly identical to ASP's QPR, REPLY, and outreach offerings.
