Post a CommentThis sounds great Sandy. I think it is something that should be offered in every state more often to help others.
Excellent writing! Thanks for sharing :)
Sounds like a terrific program.
A great resource
I'm glad they are doing this. It is very important.
Good article. That is wonderful that they are doing that.
Actually Lorraine, our winter this year has been very mild and great! The ski resorts have received a lot of snow with Telluride and the San Juan mountains receiving the least amounts. I don't think people here are depressed because of this past winter, I think it's a nationwide problem.
With the severe winter weather the southern Rockies have had, it's no wonder folks in Ouray think of suicide! The snow always vanishes in Spring, as should thoughts of suicide in our beloved Rockies.
excellent article, My computer crashed I just got back online
Awesome article! Thanks so much for sharing this information. I hope that this helps people in the area! 5*
