The World Suicide Prevention Day theme for the next three years is “Creating hope through action,” and it is celebrated on September 10th of each year. This topic serves as a gentle reminder that there is an alternative to suicide, and it hopes to instill a sense of self-assurance and positivity in all of us.

On September 10th, the Karuna Sadan Trust hosted an event to promote suicide and mental health awareness. The event was attended by the youths of Mumbai City and Hosted by Mr. Michael Fernandes (Trustee).

During the event, our Speaker spoke on “The Myths around Suicide and How We Can Make a Difference.”

Over the last quarter (May 2022-August 2022), the Karuna Sadan Trust Help Line has seen a significant increase in the number of calls from people who are feeling helpless and anxious. Our Volunteers have given people hope by just listening to their challenges and proposing solutions.
