Morphology

suicide + awareness + and + support

The phrase directly combines the literal meanings of its parts: 'suicide' with 'awareness' and 'support' joined by 'and', yielding the straightforward idea of information/education and assistance related to suicide. This compositional, non-idiomatic structure is cross-linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows the constituent words should be able to infer the overall meaning.

Etymology

The phrase suicide awareness and support paints two simple pictures: awareness is like shining a light so people can see a hidden problem, and support is like someone holding your hand when times are hard. So the phrase means giving information and real help to 'prevent suicide' and to 'support people affected'.
