(WDNews) — The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention is launching Caring Communities: Guidance for Supporting Survivors of Suicide Loss, a new education program designed to help workplaces and community groups support individuals grieving a loss to suicide.
The one-hour presentation, available in person or virtually, will provide participants with information, resources, and practical strategies. Topics include understanding suicide as a complex health issue, recognizing its impact on loss survivors, learning practical ways to offer support in different settings, and becoming familiar with available resources.
Developed by AFSP’s National Loss & Healing Council, the program incorporates expertise and lived experience to guide participants in building supportive environments.
A public presentation of Caring Communities will take place Monday, August 25, from 1 to 2 p.m. ET via Zoom. While registration for this session is full, additional dates are available, including September 4 and September 9.
