Wake Up: Stories from the Frontlines of Suicide Prevention
September 8 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Event Navigation
In recognition of September as Suicide Prevention Month, a screening of Wake Up: Stories from the Frontlines of Suicide Prevention will be held on Monday, September 8, from 6-9 pm, on the campus of Sinclair Community College, Smith Auditorium, Building 12. September 8 is specifically noted as 988 Day (#988), which is observed to raise awareness about the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. Jordan Ostrum, a Community Impact Specialist for DML, acknowledges that, “We’re all aware of how divided we feel these days, but Wake Up is unifying because it focuses on college students, gun owners, veterans, and LGBTQIA+ individuals who are all at a high risk of dying by suicide. These groups don’t always interact with one another, yet they are brought together to address this important topic.”
A guest panel made up of members from each of the above-mentioned groups will share their stories, thus providing a stronger support system to show others that they are not alone. “DML is proud to be able to partner with over ten different local organizations so that we can break the stigma, continue the conversation, and send a message that everyone is free to belong,” Ostrum adds.
Patrons are encouraged to use #988DAYton on social media platforms to show support for this event. The Smith Auditorium, Building 12, is in the Sinclair Conference Center at the corner of S. Perry and W. 4th Streets in Dayton, 45402.
