Suicide is preventable, but it takes a community-wide effort. The students of Nelson Island School in Toksook Bay are using a model working with the Alaska Chapter of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Their efforts are part of a new Indie Alaska episode by Alaska Public Media.
Join us for a free screening of the film and a facilitated community conversation about suicide, prevention, and grief-processing in Anchorage and beyond.
Partners in the program will be on hand to talk about their experience.
