🌍 World Su***de Prevention Day – September 10
On this day, communities across Canada and around the world gather to show support, remember those lost to su***de, comfort those who grieve, and strengthen our connections.
This year, the Canadian Association for Su***de Prevention is hosting a free virtual event:
✨ Indigenous Knowledge and Life Promotion: Changing Narratives on Su***de
🗓️ Wednesday, September 10

Featuring:
