13th Annual
International Survivors of Suicide Day
Worldwide, 1 million people die by suicide every year, leaving behind countless family members and friends wondering, “Why did this happen?” “How will I get through it?”
On the third Saturday of November each year, survivors of suicide loss come together at hundreds of local healing conferences in cities around the world and online for mutual support and practical guidance on coping with grief.
The annual program features survivors of suicide loss who tell their stories and share the things that have helped them to cope. Experts explain the basics of what we currently know about suicide and grief. Sharing sessions, local speakers, and healing activities may also be offered at your local conference site.
SAVE the DATE and join us next year on Saturday, November 17, 2012. You can attend a local conference in your area or watch online that day and join in a live online chat with other survivors.
Past programs are saved online for a full two years, so you can watch any time day or night, for free, throughout the year. Watch past programs now. They're available with English Captioning and with Spanish and French Subtitles.
Want to bring this day to your community next November? It's easy to do, and it’s never too early to start planning. Visit www.afsp.org/survivorconference and email survivingsuicideloss@afsp.org for information.
