It is estimated that each day in Canada, 12 people end their life and more than 200 make a suicide attempt<\/a>. Suicide impacts people of all ages and backgrounds. They all have a story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Suicide Prevention Coalition of Champlain East reconvenes in time for the 2023 WSPD<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Due to COVID-19, the work of the Suicide Prevention Coalition of Champlain East was limited. In time for this year\u2019s WSPD, the Coalition has reconvened with a mission to increase awareness of and engagement in suicide prevention within our communities to ultimately reduce suicide and its impact. The Coalition is guided by a newly developed strategic action plan. Priorities include education, awareness, and engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Members of the Coalition are people with lived or living experience and partners from health, social, education, and community safety sectors. Together, they envision suicide-safer communities<\/a>, a ground up approach to changing public attitudes about suicide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Les copr\u00e9sidentes de la Coalition, Chantal Lalonde, gestionnaire de programme au Bureau de sant\u00e9 de l’est de l’Ontario, et Joanne Ledoux-Moshonas, directrice g\u00e9n\u00e9rale de l’Association canadienne pour la sant\u00e9 mentale (ACSM) de Champlain-Est, soulignent que nos actions peuvent donner de l’espoir \u00e0 ceux qui luttent. \u00ab\u00a0Tout le monde peut sauver une vie\u00a0\u00bb, disent-elles. \u00ab\u00a0Que vous soyez un jeune, un parent, un ami, un coll\u00e8gue ou un voisin, vous pouvez faire la diff\u00e9rence. L’utilisation d’un suicide-safe language<\/a> est un bon point de d\u00e9part\u00a0\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Free training to commemorate WSPD<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n As WSPD approaches, the Coalition invites individuals 15 years of age or older to reserve a seat free of charge in one of two upcoming SafeTALK trainings on a first come, first served basis.

You can get help<\/a> if you are worried about someone else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Just as importantly, to be a light for someone, you need to keep your light bright. When your own needs are being met; you are better able to support a loved one<\/a> and help someone in crisis<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At any time, if you are in a moment of crisis, struggling to understand or cope with suicidal thoughts, or worried about someone else, reach out:<\/p>\n\n\n\n For more information about suicide prevention, visit suicideprevention.ca<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n -30-<\/p>\n\n\n\n For questions about the Coalition, please contact co-chairs Chantal Lalonde, Program Manager at the Eastern Ontario Health Unit at chalalonde@eohu.ca<\/a> or 1-613-933-1375 ext. 1250 and Joanne Ledoux-Moshonas, Executive Director at the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) of Champlain East at \u00a0moshonasj@cmha-east.on.ca<\/a> or 1-613-933-5845.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" La Journ\u00e9e mondiale de pr\u00e9vention du suicide (JMPS) a lieu chaque ann\u00e9e le 10 septembre afin de sensibiliser le public au fait que le suicide peut \u00eatre \u00e9vit\u00e9 et pr\u00e9venu.
