KeepSafe

Since 2001, Brandon & Area SPIN has been involved in a variety of suicide prevention initiatives.

Suicide-Safer Community

Brandon & Area SPIN recognizes that the impact of suicide is widespread, affecting families, friends and communities. It is a complex issue with complex contributing factors and, therefore, needs a multifaceted approach with broad community supports to build a Suicide-Safer Community.
