Thirty‐one suicidal French‐Canadian men and women participated in a study of the differential effect of two community‐based support programs on levels of self‐esteem, stress, and suicide ideation. Results indicate that subjects in both programs reported an increase in self‐esteem and a decrease in life stress and suicide ideation. The two social support approaches reflected in the respective programs did not result in relative differences in suicide ideation.
