A new program has been launched to support the loved ones of local residents who die by suicide.

The Community Navigator is now available to help family and friends by connecting them to the many community resources available, but which they don’t know about or have difficulty accessing during a painful time of loss, officials said.

The Navigator will also follow-up on a longer-term basis and check in with them on important dates, such as their loved one’s birthday, holidays, etc.

The program was started by Victim Services and the local Suicide Prevention Committee, with support from the Rotary Club of Sarnia and nine partner agencies.
