The discussion will include first hand accounts from individuals whose lives have been touched by suicide including: a family member who lost a loved one to suicide, a crisis line worker, someone who has attempted suicide and a mental health professional. The panel wil be followed by a Remembrance and Awareness Walk around the Village Commons with suicide awareness ribbons for participants. Closing remarks will be made by Mayor Tim Baldermann
