International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day

This November 22, on International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day, we come together with other people who share in the grief. For some, it’s a day to talk about the person they lost. For others, it’s a chance to listen to someone else’s story. More than anything, it’s about supporting each other.
