PUBLIC MESSAGING / KEY MESSAGES
308 Conversations is a grassroots campaign spearheaded by the Mental Health Commission of Canada that invites each of Canada’s 308 Members of Parliament to host a community meeting in their riding about suicide prevention, intervention and postvention.
The goal of the 308 Conversations campaign is to share the best ideas and work together to create lasting solutions that will serve our communities. We all have a role to play in preventing suicide.
308 Conversations will provide Canadians with information on the actions and initiatives taking place in their own community.
More tools for suicide prevention are needed. Results of these community meetings will be used to inform the Mental Health Commission of Canada of the valuable insight and ideas gathered during 308 Conversations’ community conversations surrounding suicide prevention across Canada. They will work to develop a best practice community model on suicide prevention.
