The Caring Community Coalition of Wasatch County has created an extensive mental health program in honor of May Mental Health Awareness Month to promote education and changing the culture around suicide and mental health through a grant made possible from the Live On Foundation, an organization dedicated to preventing suicide. The lineup includes advocate speakers who relay their personal stories, QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer) suicide prevention trainings, a documentary screening and panel discussion, as well as Yoga Night. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe are excited to provide such valuable information and resources to our community members,\u201d said Trudy Brereton, co-chair of the Wasatch Caring Community Coalition and prevention coordinator for Wasatch Behavioral Health. \u201cThe purpose of the variety of presentations and trainings is to give families a toolbox of resources to help them deal with the challenges they face right now. We are also working to destigmatize mental health and break down barriers for seeking help so that those who are struggling can get the help they need.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In honor of May Mental Health Month, official Proclamations will be given from Midway City on April 20, 2021, Heber City on April 20, 2021, and Wasatch County on April 21, 2021, at each government\u2019s respective Council meetings.
