In this Mind Matters we provided postvention after suicide care resources, information and support for those who have experienced the loss of a loved one to suicide. Guests heard from Tammy Weppelman, M.S., LPC-S, Director of Suicide Prevention Policy and Services with the Texas Health & Human Services Commission in the field of suicide prevention and support as well as a special guest who will shared their personal story.
