The <\/span>South Florida Regional Transportation Authority<\/b> (SFRTA) <\/b>has announced a new partnership with <\/span>Henderson Behavioral Health<\/b> to implement a comprehensive suicide prevention initiative aimed at reducing incidents related to railroad trespassing across South Florida.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThis partnership reflects our unwavering commitment to safety and to the well-being of the communities we serve,\u201d <\/span>said<\/b> Marci Woodward, Palm Beach County vice mayor and SFRTA chair<\/b>. \u201cEvery life lost on our rail corridor is one too many. By working alongside Henderson Behavioral Health, we are taking a proactive, human-centered approach focused not only on prevention, but on providing hope, awareness, and intervention where it is needed.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Supported by a $56,500 grant from the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), the program will combine targeted public education campaigns with specialized training for SFRTA employees, contractors, and regional partners. The initiative is designed to raise awareness about the dangers of railroad trespassing, identify warning signs of individuals in crisis, and equip frontline personnel with the tools to respond effectively and compassionately.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFor more than 70 years, Henderson Behavioral Health has worked to meet people where they are and remove barriers to care,\u201d <\/span>said<\/b> Dr. Steven Ronik, CEO of Henderson Behavioral Health<\/b>. \u201cThis important partnership with Tri-Rail allows us to bring awareness about services that are available to people who are struggling or navigating difficult times. It\u2019s okay not to be okay \u2013 you don\u2019t have to go through it alone.\u00a0 Support is here, and help is available.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to FRA data, Florida ranked second in the nation for railroad trespassing casualties in 2025, reporting 65 fatalities and 70 injuries. Within the South Florida Rail Corridor, shared by Tri-Rail, Amtrak, and CSXT, there were 12 trespasser strikes in 2025, nine of which resulted in fatalities. The trend has continued into 2026, with Tri-Rail reporting 14 trespasser incidents to date, 10 of which were fatal.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cOur goal is not only to prevent tragedies but to foster a culture of awareness and care,\u201d <\/span>added Woodward<\/b>. \u201cThis program is about saving lives through education, compassion, and meaningful partnerships.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

SFRTA encourages the public to respect railroad boundaries and to seek help for themselves or others who may be in distress. More information about this effort will be made available on <\/span>www.tri-rail.com<\/span> and Tri-Rail social media channels.<\/span><\/p>\n
