The Coalition
Suicide prevention is a shared responsibility. Canada needs a coordinated national approach, and it will take all of us to make it happen.
Hope Can't Wait is bringing together organizations, professionals, researchers, communities, advocates, and people with lived and living experience to advance a comprehensive National Suicide Prevention Strategy for Canada.
By working together, we can strengthen the national voice for suicide prevention, advance evidence-informed policy, identify gaps in existing approaches, and advocate for the sustained action needed to save lives.
