Do you want to learn more about suicide prevention, postvention, and intervention efforts in Canada?

The Mental Health Commission of Canada (MHCC) recognizes the importance of talking about suicide prevention and how we can all work together to reduce the number of deaths by suicide. In an effort to share knowledge, resources, and lessons learned, the MHCC is hosting a webinar series focused on suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention.

Our next suicide prevention webinar takes place on October 14, 2014, and will showcase how one organization is supporting LGBTQ youth in Canada with recommendations and action plans that are a result of two youth summits focused on suicide prevention efforts amongst LGBTQ youth populations.

When: Tuesday, October 14, 2014 from 1 to 2 p.m. ET
