About SOSAD Ireland

Since 2007, SOSAD has worked to raise awareness and help prevent suicide in Ireland. We have worked tirelessly in our communities to help those in need feel supported and know they are not alone on their journey. SOSAD offers support and services for people who are going through bereavement, struggling with a loss of a loved one, from suicide, suffering with mental health issues, suffering with stress and anxiety, struggling with isolation, or if you simply need someone to talk to.
If you want to talk, we are here to listen. You can message us, call us, or call into our office.
We have seven offices based in Cavan, Louth, Meath, Laois and Monaghan from which we provide our services. Online services are available.
