My Story…

Raise awareness for suicide prevention and join us in a journey from darkness into light.

I lost my step son Andrew 7 years ago. 

All year long I try to talk openly, have and invite conversations to help stop the stigma associated with the word Suicide .

I make people understand that they are not alone and help is there.  I may not have the answers but I will do my best to find the answers with you.

I tell people to listen carefully to the words that someone is saying and never be afraid to ask if they are struggling if you believe they may be and mostly just ask if they are okay. Show them you are listening and care and that you are there for them.

The Centre for Suicide Prevention is an education centre based in Calgary, Canada.  They equip people with the information, knowledge and skills necessary to respond to people considering suicide.  They educate online, in print, and interactively and their library of over 50,000 suicide-specific items, the largest English-language collection of its kind.  

Please, take the time and go see what the Centre for Suicide Prevention is doing to help those we love and help them to continue their dedicated work by donating and supporting the Run for Life.  Learn about how the CMHA Alberta and the Centre for Suicide Prevention work together.  A definite winning team.
