Swampy Cree Suicide Prevention Team

Are you in crisis?

Are you concerned about someone being suicidal?

If you are feeling suicidal, please contact your local crisis line or counseling centre.

We are not a counseling service and we must refer you on. It is strongly recommended that you seek guidance from a professional caregiver.

You have made the right choice to look for help.

We hope you will contact someone right away.

Here are some websites that could help you find a centre near you.
