We are currently working on getting local service clubs/teams in our community to support our team. We will be making presentations to them to explain who we are, what we do, and the importance of suicide awareness and intervention training. If you would like to support DSS' Suicide Intervention Team in any way possible, please contact the school (905-774-7401).
