Tomorrow, September 10th, is World Suicide Prevention Day. As you know from a previous post, I am facilitating an information Session (see poster to the left) in High Prairie, Alberta. The great news is that this session has a FULL registration of participants. I am so pleased to know there is such an interest.
There are other activities in Alberta and, at home, that you can participate in.

Tomorrow, on World Suicide Prevention Day, you can choose to light a candle. I do this every year to remember those who have died by suicide but also for those people who are surviving that loss. Honouring their memory is a way to help us grieve. It also gives us a chance to remove the stigma by talking about suicide and how important it is share concerns.
On Thursday, the Support Network and CMHA Edmonton Region are hosting their annual March and Resource Fair. There is so much information that could benefit you or someone you know. If you are in the Edmonton area, consider attending.
