Join us for Light the Way: Suicide Prevention Awareness Fair, a free, youth-led event focused on promoting mental health awareness, suicide prevention, and hope. Planned by local Youth Ambassadors, this event brings together community organizations, interactive activities, and mental health resources to educate and empower teens, young adults, families, and community members.
Attendees will have the opportunity to connect with local resource providers, learn how to recognize the warning signs of suicide, discover ways to support friends and loved ones, and explore available mental health services in the community.
A special feature of the event is Youth QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer) Gatekeeper Certification. Up to 30 teens, ages 14 and older, will have the opportunity to become QPR certified, learning practical skills to recognize warning signs, respond with confidence, and connect someone to professional help.
Registration is required, and space for QPR certification is limited.
Together, let's Light the Way toward hope, connection, and a stronger, more supportive community.
