As part of this we offer a 24/7 texting support service for anyone feeling that the world is not currently a safe space to be.  In suicide postvention we work with individuals, communities, practices, workplaces, schools, colleges and universities touched by suicide to support those in need through the devastation that results from each and every suicide. We train those impacted by suicide to become “experienced friends” - people who have developed the skills to walk with others on the journey of suicide grief. Encouraging our clients to find purpose in life after a deeply impacting suicidedeath is a major focus of our work.
