Suicide Prevention Network

View / Download

The Mission of the Suicide Prevention Network is to provide awareness, suicide prevention and support services through education, advocacy and intervention.

The Suicide Prevention Network believes that by bringing awareness to the workplace, schools, service clubs and homes, we have the opportunity to reduce this devastating loss of life across all ages. We know that without action there will be increased numbers of suicides in the local area. We all need to work together to educate, inform & support our community and prevent additional tragedies.
 
The Suicide Prevention Network supports a Suicide Loss Survivors Support Group that provides healing support for people coping with the shock, excruciating grief and complex emotions that accompany the loss of a loved one to suicide. It is important to know that people can, and do, survive the loss by suicide of a family member or friend. They are forever altered and may never stop missing their loved ones, but they do survive and go on to lead meaningful and contributory lives. The Support Group meetings are held on the 4th Thursday of every month, 6:00-7:00 p.m. at Barton Public Relations. Visit the Suicide Prevention Network website for more information.
