WE'RE IN THS FIGHT TOGETHER

Backed by the Ohio Suicide Prevention Foundation (OSPF), Life Side Ohio exists to unify members of Ohio's firearms community - from owners, hunters, and enthusiasts, to veterans, first responders, and retailers - in the battle to end gun-related suicides. No politics. Just education, resources, and support designed to save lives. Are you in?

THESE ARE OUR VOICES

Every person lost to suicide is one person too many, which is why we all must play a role in preventing such tragedies. Hear from Ohioans who are doing their part to save lives.
