World Suicide Prevention Day (WSPD) is just over 100 days away. We have prepared a Toolkit that contains WSPD resources and links to related Web sites. In addition, we have published a Press

Package that includes sample press releases, a suicide fact sheet and guides in working with the media. We hope that you join us on our WSPD Facebook Event page at: http://tinyurl.com/7wmm7rd.

We are requesting your support in helping us translate both the WSPD Banner and Light a Candle Near a Window at 8 PM postcards into as many languages as possible. Last year the banner was made available in over 50 languages. Please send translations to webmaster@iasp.info.

A warm thank you is extended to IASP FB Fan and new volunteer Francie Mooney for her kind support in welcoming new Fans.
