The SPAZ Movement and Team has been created to stop the stigma of suicide and to get others talking about prevention!

SPAZ = Suicide Prevention and Awareness Zone

I (and my Co-Founder Valerie) have a huge passion for spreading the awareness and prevention of suicide as we have been touched and rocked in many ways by it emotional grasp.

The SPAZ Movement is a team we have created to use our physical activity and events to raise awareness for suicide prevention and awareness. We will not sweep this dirty word under the rug any longer.

There are 5 things we can do every day to help prevent suicide...

1. Ask. Are you okay?

2. Listen. What is going on?

3. Be There. Be an unwavering friend.

4. Help Connect. Help connect friend with whatever resource is needed

5. Check In. Even after crisis, check in, don't waiver.
