First Responder & Military Personnel Mental Health & Suicide Awareness Conferences

[Dean Young]

Just a reminder of the Legacy Place Society's conferences this month in recognition of World Suicide Prevention Day. I attended the one in Calgary last year and was a very eye opening experience. I highly recommend attendance.

CALGARY
SEPTEMBER 20, 2018

EDMONTON
SEPTEMBER 27, 2018

To register, visit www.legacyplacesociety.com

Both Conferences share an opportunity for all from police, fire, EMS, 9-1-1, military, corrections, peace officers, sheriffs, fish and wildlife officers, commercial vehicle enforcement, animal and bylaw officers, security personnel, and front line medical workers and their families to come together in one place to remember the people we have lost to suicide, recognize many today are still suffering in silence, and identify what we can do as a collective to build resiliency and healthy workplaces through awareness and education.

First Responders and Military Personnel are key stakeholders for our safe and healthy communities, and often fail to recognize they too also require support and care to ensure their health for a long career as well as life after their service.

Please join us this year to learn more about the topic of suicide, the most common concerns around mental health and addictions, how to build resiliency in today’s fast-paced world and be a part of the network that is promoting understanding and compassion to reduce stigma and foster hope.
