Letter to the Editor

Help available for those with thoughts of suicide

Wednesday, February 3, 2010

Dear editor:

My heart is sad by the tragic suicides in our small community.

Please know that there are people who care. Support, Help, and Resources for Encouragement (SHARE) meets every Thursday from 6 -7:30 p.m at the Nazarene Church's Jones Center.

There are five licensed counselors in our community who volunteer their time to provide this service to the community.

Sometimes just having a safe place to talk can help us make it through times when life seems overwhelming.

We learn from each other and know we are not alone.

Connie Powers, LMSW
