Suicide Awareness Program at High School

Darcy Bell Symes, Neighbor

A community-wide presentation on suicide awareness given by the Brookfield Coalition for Suicide Awareness, Brookfield ACTS, will take place 7-9pm tomorrow, Wednesday, in the Brookfield High School Auditorium. Organizers urge parents, educators, high school and college students, military, senior citizens, clergy, neighbors, coaches – everyone – to attend.

The presentation will include speakers who have lost loved ones by suicide, a PowerPoint presentation, question and answer session, and availability of discussion
with accredited psychological professionals.

Brookfield ACTS aims "to raise awareness that depression
and suicide are public health issues for individuals across the lifespan; to try to reduce the incidence of these problems through advocacy and education."
