Until now, there's been nothing for them in the voices of their peers.

Talking OutLOUD: Teens & Suicide Loss, A Conversation has changed that. This award-winning landmark film features five members of Coping After Suicide's Teens Group who share, with parents and family members watching, their deeply personal yet universal experiences.   This event is made possible with support from:   Losing a loved one to suicide is a painful and difficult experience.
