NPASD is partnering with the HELPLINE Center to host an event focusing on mental health and suicide prevention. The evening will include a showing of the documentary My Ascension.
At 16 years old, varsity cheerleader Emma Benoit attempted to end her life. MY ASCENSION is an inspiring look at Emma Benoit's story, and includes firsthand experiences of families, friends, school officials, and suicide prevention experts.
A panel discussion including mental health professionals and first responders working in communities around the state will be moderated by the HelpLine team following the documentary.
This event will be free. We will be posting additional details of host sites in the coming weeks. Please mark the date on your calendar.
