Adult Education
Supporting someone experiencing suicidal thoughts can feel intimidating. Often individuals will avoid offering support in fear of saying or doing the wrong thing. At NEED2 we want to create suicide safer communities by providing folks from all backgrounds the skills, knowledge and confidence to support someone who is experiencing thoughts of suicide.
