The Brant Haldimand Norfolk Canadian Mental Health Association is recognizing World Suicide Prevention Day on September 10th, with the theme “Changing the Narrative on Suicide.”
This international event seeks to foster open conversations about mental health and combat stigma.
With 12 suicides occurring daily in Canada and 20,000 self-harm hospitalizations reported last year, the need for awareness is critical.
A free BBQ and Memorial Stone Dedication is happening today at their office in Simcoe, though registration has passed.
