In Tucumán, health and academic institutions have initiated training programs focused on suicide prevention and mental health. 

Initially, the Ministry of Public Health conducted training at the University of the North Santo Tomás de Aquino (UNSTA). This session targeted healthcare workers and therapeutic operators, specifically addressing how digital environments and technology use impact emotional well-being and mental health. The initiative was a collaborative effort involving the Suicide Behavior Prevention and Approach Program of SIPROSA, the Government Training School, and the Tucumán Life Observatory.

Following this, the National University of Tucumán (UNT) launched a suicide prevention initiative through its Faculty of Psychology. This program emphasizes an interdisciplinary approach, seeking to involve security forces, education, health, and community agents to recognize warning signs. The UNT initiative includes specialists contributing expertise related to the development of the Suicide Prevention Law.
