safeTALK Sessions for All Lambton AAA Team Staffs and Exec
Lambton AAA Association is presenting safeTALK sessions for all team staffs. It is expected that all attend.

Suicide is a significant public health concern shrouded by stigma and shame.  safeTALK is a training in ‘suicide alertness’ that prepares anyone over the age of 15 to identify persons with thoughts of suicide and connect them to suicide first aid resources. safeTALK is an internationally recognized workshop.

Two safeTALK sessions have been scheduled to accommodate team practices schedules as follows:
Thursday December 3
   Minor Atom
   Major Atom
   Minor Peewee
   Minor Midget
   Exec Members
 
Wednesday December 9
   Major Peewee
   Minor Bantam
   Major Midget
   Executive Members
 
The sessions start at 6:00 pm in the lower hall at Clearwater arena.  The sessions are expected to last no more than 2.5 hours - the AAA Association is picking up all costs.
 
Team Managers, please confirm the numbers for your team no latter than Monday November 30th with Ryan Trusler email [email protected]
