As Su***de Prevention Awareness Month comes to a close, we are reminded that su***de prevention is about more than responding to crisis. It is also about promoting life, hope and connection.
The Wise Practices initiative offers community-driven resources to support life promotion and wellness for First Nations youth. Rooted in Indigenous knowledge, it emphasizes belonging, meaning, purpose and hope while shifting the focus from crisis to the celebration of life.
Through land-based learning, intergenerational relationships, cultural practices and community-led healing, Wise Practices helps youth feel connected, supported, and empowered.
Life promotion reminds us that wellness is not only personal, but also cultural, collective, and deeply tied to community. Learn more: https://wisepractices.ca
