suicide prevention have been taking a
new approach to the issue lately.
Awareness campaigns and education has
been focused on breaking the stigma of
keeping quiet on suicide.

Centre held a memorial feast for loved
ones who died by suicide. The feast was
held at the FCWC on Tuesday Oct. 7,
2014.
This event is designed to break the
silence ofsuicide and prevent families
and friends from grieving in isolation.
A guest speaker from the community
shared his story on how suicide has
impacted him.
The Counseling Services Department
wanted to explore how different values
and beliefs impact the grieving process.
