Open to all Unifor members.

Postvention IS prevention. What we do in the aftermath of suicide, how we support one another (or don't), and what resources people are aware of, will either increase safety, or heighten future risk.

Led by ASIST-trainer, TEDxUW speaker, President of Life Voice Canada, and suicide-bereaved Shawna Percy, this interactive virtual workshop will explore:

  • Language around suicide and suicide loss
  • How to support people through turbulent times
  • What can we say after suicide has happened?
  • What we can do to mitigate future risk of suicide
  • What resources are available?

The workshop will run for 90 minutes. However, our facilitator will stay on after the 90 minutes to answer any additional questions that arise.

This workshop will be hosted online through Zoom, participants will be emailed information on how to join. You must RSVP.
