The role of mental health recovery in suicide prevention

For September Suicide Prevention Awareness Month and Recovery Month, we hosted this webinar to discuss the role of recovery from mental health and substance use conditions in suicide prevention. We heard the inspiring recovery story from a person who lives with mental health challenges and has lived through multiple suicide attempts. Our doctors shared their knowledge and professional experience in identifying the signs of suicide, and addressing mental health and substance use challenges to prevent suicide.
