International Survivors of Suicide Day — 21 November

As the holidays approach, International Survivors of Suicide Day reminds us that this time of year can take a toll on survivors around the world. The World Health Organization estimates that over 800,000 people die by suicide each year. However, that number doesn’t begin to tell the stories of the people who took their lives not fully realizing their potential. Plus, suicides have a devastating impact on family and friends.

The day falls on the Saturday before Thanksgiving. On November 21, let’s come together for healing and mutual support.
