Guidelines for Sharing Experiences with Suicide (Guide)
For someone impacted by a suicide attempt or loss, telling their story can be cathartic. However, when considering telling the story publicly, it's critical to determine if the story will be safe for others to hear. Created by the Centre for Suicide Prevention, Guidelines for Sharing Experiences with Suicide is a guide for those impacted by suicide who would like to share their experience publicly. It offers important guidelines and additional resources to support safe messaging and story sharing of experiences with suicide.
