Depression is a medical condition that can effect a person’s mood, feelings, thought processes, and ability to interact with others.
Between 1,200 and 1,500 individuals in Ohio take their own life each year. However, recovery from depression is very possible, and is achievable.

Our purpose is to:

  • Acknowledge survivors’ pain in a safe environment.
  • Offer encouragement from others who have lost a loved one.
  • Teach healthy coping skills.

LOSS Team

The Four County LOSS Team responds to the home where new survivors are gathered. After a completed suicide, a team of 2-3 compassionate and trained volunteers are coordinated to respond to the home.
