Zero Suicide Alliance - Free Suicide Awareness Training

On the 10th September 2022, it is World Suicide Prevention Day

Let's Talk about Suicide and Make it a preventable death!

Thanks to Zero Suicide Alliance for providing training, evidence-based and interactive resources for supporting communities in preventing suicide.

There are more information and cues in the training and I with all my heart invite you to complete it and share it with others.

Although I will say, success can only be determined by the individual in the driving seat as success for some is different for others. It remains supporting other successes by working for another designer or company can be extremely rewarding as we learn the importance of having a team around us to achieve greater high.
