988 Day at the Louisiana Capitol 2026
About this Event
Join the Office of Behavioral Health and our community partners for 988 Day at the Capitol!
Meet in Baton Rouge on Tuesday, September 8, 2026, from 10:00 AM–12:00 PM at the Capitol Garden to raise awareness of suicide prevention across Louisiana.
988 Day at the Capitol is a statewide celebration of mental health, hope, and suicide prevention in Louisiana. Together, we'll raise awareness of the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, highlight the lifesaving work happening in communities across our state, and celebrate the organizations, providers, advocates, and individuals making a difference every day. This event brings together people from every corner of Louisiana to strengthen connections, share resources, inspire hope, and continue building a future where everyone has access to support when they need it most!
New this year: Due to ongoing renovations to the Louisiana State Capitol and Capitol steps, both the rally and community resource fair will be held at the Capitol Garden (900 N. 3rd St., Baton Rouge).
