Coaches On The Lookout For Signs Of Suicide

Thunder Bay's Youth Suicide Prevention Task Force wants hockey coaches to be able to spot when young people are upset and troubled.  Program Spokesperson Sheila Hansen says they're training activity leaders and coaches this fall.  Coaches, teachers and activity leaders will receive a tip sheet and DVD about youth suicide and how to get students help.  The campaign is being funded by the Ontario Trillium Foundation.
