On #NDTR we remember and honour all the children across Turtle Island whose lives were stolen by the residential school system, and all First Nations, Inuit, and Métis who live with the impacts of this system today. If you’re struggling today, support is available.

Talking about suicide is hard, but it can show someone who is struggling that you care. That’s we’ve created the “We can talk about suicide” resource, 50 questions to spark conversations about suicide. Info : 988.ca/we-can-talk-ab… #988Canada

Thank you Todd Doherty for all you have done to advance suicide prevention, including your Bill to bring the 9-8-8 number to Canada. Suicide prevention is an issue for all of us.

3 words can make a difference in someone’s life… “Are you okay?” On #WorldSuicidePreventionDay and everyday, make sure to check in with your friends, loved ones and colleagues. Together, we can lessen the devastating impact of suicide in Canada. 3 simple words may just save…



Thank you @ExPlaceTO for shining a light to reduce stigma around suicide, and to remind people that 9-8-8 (by phone/text) and our communities are there for people who are struggling, or are worried about someone. @988Canada @CAMHnews

Tonight, the Exhibition Place Princes' Gates and Enercare Centre towers will shine bright in yellow, joining landmarks across Canada to support World Suicide Prevention Day and the 9-8-8 Suicide Crisis Helpline. 💛 #WorldSuicidePreventionDay Image: Paul Bica via Flickr

This service would literally not be possible without the compassionate response of trained responders and supervisors at our partner organizations across the country. This is what allows us to be community-engaged. ❤️

On #WorldSuicidePreventionDay, a huge THANK YOU to all the amazing responders, supervisors and other staff across the country who make 9-8-8 possible! Thanks to you, we’re able to provide life-saving support to people facing their most challenging moments. #988Canada #WSPD2024

Our research showed 1 in 3 Canadians has reached out to a crisis line, and 1 in 4 is currently experiencing significant distress. Yet, the very people who need support experience the most self-stigma. Let's all join together to reduce stigma, and connect through conversation.

Talking about suicide is hard, but we want to help. For #WorldSuicidePreventionDay, we’re launching « We Can Talk About Suicide », a free resource to help you get the conversation started. Get your copy here : 988.ca/we-can-talk-ab… #WSPD2024 #988Canada
