There will be a World Suicide Prevention Walk here in Nain tomorrow, Sept. 10, 2019.
Rutie Lampe is the Mental Health & Addictions Worker for DHSD.
She says starting at 6:15pm, anyone wanting to participate in this walk will meet by the Nain DHSD building.
T-shirts will also be given along with a proclamation by the AngajukKâk of Nain, Joe Dicker.
At the church service, one of the activities will be putting yellow hearts on a tree and writing their name and good memory about a loved one.
Lampe adds that at 8pm, there will be an International Lighting of Candle in the Window in memory of loved ones.
So, join in on tomorrow, September 10 and help support this World Suicide Prevention Walk.
We also have the Makkovik World Suicide Prevention event.
Tomorrow starting at 6PM they will go ahead with their Community Walk, and you meet at the DHSD building, but depending on the weather they will meet at the arena.
They will give out yellow and Orange ribbons for you to use.
At 8PM they will have a Community Candle on your window.
If you have any questions you can contact Kim Andersen the Community Health Worker with DHSD at 923-2297.
Okâlakatiget Radio will have the other communities once it becomes available.
