The town of Newtown has partnered with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention on an event being held next Thursday, November 5th.  Suicide is the 11th leading cause of death in Connecticut.  The organization says at times life can be hard, with or without a pandemic.  They have an educational program called Talk Saves Lives, which covers the scope of this leading cause of death, what research has found to be the common risk factors, warning signs for suicide, and strategies that can help save lives. Registration is required.  There will be two presentations, both at 6:30pm.  In addition to Thursday, there's one on the 19th.  A Zoom link will be sent via email prior to the presentation time.  First Selectman Dan Rosenthal and Superintendent of Schools Lorrie Rodrigue will deliver opening remarks.  Each presentation is limited to 50 people.  There will be a Q&A session at the end of each presentation.
