September 10, 2015 is World Suicide Prevention day. I think that this day can be a time we stop to remember those we love who have died by suicide. I plan to light a candle on that day, with prayers and thoughts to survivors. You could talk to someone about the risk of suicide or just remove the stigma by talking about it. When my children were adolescents, I told them like I have done many, many times that I loved them. I also said that if they ever had thoughts of suicide to talk to me or someone they trust. Problems are temporary and there is a solution for every problem there can be.
I am facilitating a workshop on that day, as I have done in the past. This workshop is called "Hope for Life: Helping others through tough times." It's a two hour information session and hopefully will generate a lot of discussion of how to help. If you are in the High Prairie, Alberta area come down to the Provincial building. The workshop if free.
There are other initiatives in ALberta that you might find helpful. Keep him here is a campaign initiated by the Injury Prevention Centre, Here's the website:

and this year's vimeo

The Centre for Suicide Prevention, based in Calgary, Alberta is also marking World Suicide Prevention Day by launching their initiative, "Passport to Living" for more information check out their website: www.suicideinfo.ca.

Also wanted to post the workshops that I have done on September 10th for the last two years. It's been my honour and pleasure to offer support to help people who might be having thoughts of suicide or who are survivors dealing with loss. As communities, we CAN make a difference. Thank you.
