I would like to highlight two recent additions to the Directory:

SASS - Suicide Awareness Survivor Support
http://www.sass-mokan.com/

This group believes the public must be educated about suicide and has delineated five steps towards this goal, including:

1. Education
2. Public Awareness
3. Networking with other agencies
4. Uniting survivors, and
   
5. Providing information to area support groups

The website is housed in the Directory under Survivor Resources.

Choose Life Highland
http://www.chooselifehighland.co.uk/

This Scottish organization offers support to people who feel uncomfortable asking for help in a face-to-face situation.

The site is categorized in the Directory under Crisis Centers -Europe.

I wish both organizations much success in their work to prevent suicide and to offer help to those who are suffering from the pain of losing a loved one to suicide.
