The in-school classroom Suicide Education and Awareness program provides suicide prevention education to students and staff throughout the Greater Victoria school systems.

These classroom workshops support meaningful conversations and help break the stigma and silence surrounding suicide and mental health. Students learn about the warning signs of suicide, about resources that are available to them and how to help themselves and others.

Anyone who interacts with youth can benefit from identifying and understanding the signs of depression and suicide.This program has been available to middle and high school students throughout School Districts 61, 62, 63 and 64 since 1996.
