Life Promotion & Suicide Prevention

The Life Promotion / Suicide Prevention report provides insight and recommendations on wise practices for suicide prevention and life promotion to support the well-being of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis people during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. While suicide prevention methods are helpful, the report discusses the need to emphasize life promotion approaches. Life promotion is rooted in Indigenous strengths and culture, addresses the impacts of colonization, and works to promote wholistic well-being.
