Every year on the Saturday before Thanksgiving the non-profit organization American Foundation for Suicide Prevention hosts hundreds of events world wide for International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day (Survivor Day). These events are where survivors of suicide loss come together to find connection, understanding and hope through their shared experience.
