Event Description

Every year on the Saturday before Thanksgiving, the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention sponsors
National Survivors of Suicide Day, reaching out to thousands of
people who have lost a loved one to suicide. The day of conferences
connects survivors of suicide loss through a 90-minute broadcast,
allowing them to share their experiences of loss. The broadcast
features a panel of experienced survivors and mental health
professionals and offers emotional support and information about
resources for healing after the loss of a loved one to suicide.

All local conferences will join in the broadcast from 1-2:30 p.m.
EST. Many of the local conference sites plan their own programs
around the broadcast, including panels and breakout groups, all
aimed at helping survivors heal. To find a local conference site or
