My Ascension: Free Movie & Conversation About Suicide Prevention
Wednesday, September 20, 2023
Join us at Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton for a FREE screening of the film My Ascension, a documentary about a 16-year-old suicide survivor, followed by a panel discussion about suicide prevention.
Cumberland County MH.IDD, PULSE, Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton, and the Capital Area Behavioral Health Collaborative present a free screening of My Ascension, a documentary film about Emma Benoit, a 16-year-old varsity cheerleader who attempted suicide leaving her paralyzed.
Emma is now on a mission to use her painful experience to help others find hope, and shine light on the fact that 20 young people die every day by suicide in the United States.
After the movie, we will be holding a panel discussion with our Cumberland County Mental Health Administrator, suicide attempt and loss survivors.
