Suicide is one of the leading causes of death in the United States. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that every 11 minutes, there is 1 suicide death. Those left behind grieve and struggle to make sense of the loss. Stigma prevents people from reaching out because suicide is complex. 

On November 18th, we will gather to provide support and understanding to those of us who have been impacted by suicide. Within the safety of a Sharing Circle, we will offer care and consideration for those affected.  Please join us as we provide support for our community in this important way. Light refreshments will be served. For more information, please email: wellness@mendocino.edu.
