At AFSP, our mission is to save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide.

This week, the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention announces the launch of Caring Communities: Guidance for Supporting Survivors of Suicide Loss. This new program is a one-hour presentation available in person or virtually, and designed to provide participants with information, resources, and practical guidance on how to support someone who has experienced a recent loss to suicide. The program is suitable for workplaces and community groups who want to learn how to build more supportive environments for survivors of suicide loss.

Developed by AFSP’s National Loss & Healing Council, which is made up of experts and individuals with lived experience of suicide loss, Caring Communities offers actionable insights on navigating conversations, addressing cultural considerations, and implementing practical support strategies across diverse settings for loss survivors.

To mark the launch of the program, we have added new dates to attend a public presentation of Caring Communities including:
Thursday, September 4, at 1 p.m. and Tuesday, September 9, at 1 p.m. ET.

Please feel free to share this opportunity widely with others who may be interested. Thank you, as always, for being part of AFSP’s caring community.
