Mission Statement

In Partnership with Emergency Services & Community Agencies, we provide immediate support to victims of crime and tragic circumstance.

Free Workshop: Grief After Suicide

November 14 from 7PM to 9:30PM at the Harry Lumley Bayshore Community Centre.

  • Suicide of a loved one can have a profound and devastating impact on those left behind.
  • Survivors struggle with the social stigma of suicide and may be at risk for elevated rates of complicated grief.
  • Surviving the suicide of a loved one is a life-changing ordeal requiring great resilience and all the support that family and communities can provide.
  • Topics include the impact of a suicide on individuals and the family, the myths of grief recovery, things that survivors can do to help themselves and when to seek professional help.
  • The workshop is geared towards people who are grieving the loss of a loved one to suicide, but will also be of great value to those who wish to support a grieving survivor.
