Registration is still being accepted for the Guardian Network Training course set next week at the Elma Memorial Community Centre.
A volunteer suicide prevention program, the Guardian Network was made to support the Ontario farming community with the training course being held on the 13th.
A guardian is someone who is at least 18 years of age, is likely to be in contact with farmers through their work, volunteer activities or their place in the community.
Guardians are equipped with the tools needed to identify signs of mental distress, react to farmers at risk and connect individuals with the right mental health and crisis resources.
Registration is available here.
