Each year, Student Counseling Services at The University of Southern Mississippi highlights suicide prevention month and raises awareness through Soaring with Hope, an initiative rooted in the Japanese origami tradition that calls for folding 1,000 soaring symbols of hope to represent healing. Each folded symbol represents a life, and the origami pieces made by students are displayed. Directions on how to fold origami are placed on the Soaring for Hope table in the Thad Cochran Center throughout September.
