More so than ever, individuals are taking to social media to share posts, words, and resources that matter to them. When it comes to topics like suicide, individuals have some responsibility to post in a stigma-reducing, respectful way in order to support loss survivors and those struggling. This one-hour webinar will cover this topic with a suicide prevention lens.
Samaritans’ SafePlace meetings are open groups of caring people who have lost a loved one to suicide. SafePlace peer support groups for suicide loss survivors are facilitated by trained volunteers who have also lost a loved one to suicide. SafePlace is not a professional therapy group, but rather a peer support group providing a forum for exploring feelings often not understood by others. It offers a chance to share helpful resources, and to give and get support through the long process of grieving. Meetings are free but registration is necessary.
