Organizations, Programs & Events in Region 6:
|
|
Once again, Van Dyke Church is allowing me to offer the AFSP Suicide
Survivor Conference at their Spirtual Life Center this year so if
anyone is aware of someone who may benefit from this, please let them know
that they are welcome.
There is an Out of the Darkness Walk on Nov. 12, 2011 at Riverwalk
in Tampa from 9:00 to 12:00.
On Nov. 17, 2011 the Suncoast Kids Place is promoting Children's Grief
Awareness Day. In honor of this day, people are encouraged to wear
blue. Hopefully next year we will have more time to get the word out and
start to have more participation to commemorate this day. As you know,
children's grief is not always acknowledged and our youth grow up with
emotional difficulties because of this.
