SUMMARY:'Start the Conversation' Webinar Series (#1) - Loss Survivors
DESCRIPTION:Suicide Prevention Alliance will present a series of monthly webinars to discuss what is going on in suicide prevention and how suicide impacts or can impact everyone. \nWe have decided to name these monthly events\, ‘Start the Conversation’ webinar series.  We know that starting with a conversation concerning suicide can mean asking for help\, helping someone else\, or spreading awareness of what we can do to help stop suicides from occurring. \nThis panel will consist of several Loss Survivors of Suicide (those who have lost loved ones or friends to suicide) openly discussing the pain and loss that they have experienced after their loss and the positive aspects of what they have done in their continuing goal to heal in the aftermath. \nTo register for this webinar\, please go to: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZEtdeqhqjwuGdHRvOJYs6uHzt4hO9NYN8qQ
