Amplify is proud to help promote an important community event happening this Monday, March 30th at 6:00 PM in Vernon.

Join a screening of Beautifully Broken, followed by a live Q&A with Jared Buchanan, a su***de loss survivor, who will share his story and perspective.

This event aligns with our work in Vernon to support su***de prevention through community education, especially for parents and caregivers. Opportunities like this help raise awareness of warning signs, risk factors, and how to support those who may be struggling.

📍 Rockville High School (RHS)
70 Loveland Hill Rd, Vernon, CT
🕕 6:00 PM
🎟️ All are welcome

Please note: This film includes sensitive content, including discussions of su***de, and may not be suitable for all audiences.

We encourage community members to attend, learn, and be part of the conversation. 💛

Students and school staff are enjoying the full swing of summer break! While summer brings cookouts, long days, and beach fun 🏖️ (!!), it can also be a time of isolation for students who miss the connection and support of their peers and schools. That's why the CONNECT team (featuring the Connecticut State Department of Children & Families, Child Health & Development Institute (CHDI), Carelon Behavioral Health, FAVOR, and Yale) has developed a one-page behavioral health resource to help you and anyone you know access essential support. Feel free to download, print, and share it with your networks.
