DESCRIPTION

Openly discussing suicide and suicide prevention in schools. People tend to view talking about suicide as a very bad thing and that it will actually cause suicide. This is just not true. I have personal experience with this topic unfortunately. I lost my cousin to suicide and I feel that if people had talked to him about the topic maybe he would still be here. My goal is to persuade people to open their minds to the possibility that we could save lives by just simply opening the floor to discussion.
