Story Behind the Curve

There was a slight decrease in the number of Utahns who died by suicide from 2017 to 2021, but this change is not statistically significant. Suicides increased in 2022.

Not shown: Utah's suicide rate continues to be significantly higher than the U.S. rate. The rate of male suicides is significantly higher than the rate of female suicides in both Utah and the U.S. (https://ibis.health.utah.gov/ibisph-view/indicator/view/SuicDth.html)
