I am profoundly touched by each volunteer who shares their story with me. Many have lost someone they cared about to suicide, some have struggled with their mental health , and others have walked beside friends and family struggling with mental health issues. All of our volunteers give graciously and generously to provide whatever we need in service of our mission to save lives and our vision of a world without suicide.
On April 9 we trained 9 new volunteers and certified them as QPR Gatekeepers! I’m so appreciative of the many who have given their time over the years to guide the SMP Foundation, to present programs, to offer insight, to staff our Resource Table, and to create and manage our online presence. Thank you.
