About Us

Survivor; these are those of us left behind ; maybe hurt, upset, guilty , days — months even years after a loss…

What Surviving Suicide Foundation plans to do is make suicide awareness more punctual, helping to end the stigma of suicide not being talked about. In hopes of teaming with other out reach programs affiliated with self care and prevention for those at risk?

I’m no licensed professional ! I was crushed when I heard my 19 year old son , took his life? I didn’t know what to do — I didn’t know what it was…

Learning was a must, I read and gathered data : both factual and cultural, made myself learn about bargaining, denial. Zoomed with support groups and got help , now We want to help more . This being raising funds for ;

• Community background and support

• Allow what is needed/distractions when a person feels separated from the world because of a loss

• A more peer-based board to discuss outcomes and risk factors

• Remembrance / Anniversary help ( experience in ways to make these “ difficult occasions “ close as possible to normal…

Surviving Suicide Foundation

Brings awareness, yes! Also we want to provide Self-care which is important to maintaining a healthy relationship with yourself , learning to identify with moods and risk factors. It means doing things to take care of our minds, bodies, and souls by engaging in activities ( distractions) that promote well-being. Many lower class individuals do not have the means. The practice of self-care also reminds us that your needs are valid and it’s okay to not be okay… keep watch, we are going to get; not just our state’s suicide rate , but the ‘Rate in general ‘lowered. Gods will
