Events

This year’s continued success confirms the importance of making this event an annual tradition! It highlights progress in suicide prevention while reminding us of the vast amount of work that still lies ahead. Together, we explored innovative intervention approaches, shared our experiences, and renewed our commitment to suicide prevention and supporting those in distress. 💚

In total, more than 230 people participated in all the activities: a networking cocktail reception, a performance of the play Trajectoire by Théâtre Parminou, two panel discussions, over 10 conference-workshops, several booths, and numerous other activities.

These two days, rich in dialogue and learning, were deeply inspiring and strongly reaffirmed the mission of the Suicide Prevention Centers and the importance of acting collectively to help vulnerable communities.

Don’t miss the 2027 edition—you’ll definitely want to be part of it!

We are proud to announce that we raised $392,500 during our benefit event Together, let’s illuminate hope. A huge thank-you to everyone who participated and helped make this evening a real success!

This event marked the launch of our major fundraising campaign, which aims to raise $4.5 million over five years to help reduce the number of suicides in Montreal. We would like to thank Mr. Alain Champagne and Ms. Vanessa Da Costa for joining this campaign as the ambassadors of the new projects that will be funded through this initiative. A big thank-you as well to the members of our campaign cabinet.

We also want to express our heartfelt gratitude to our valued partners, whose commitment greatly contributed to the success of this evening.
