The Canadian Association for Suicide Prevention (CASP) is thrilled to announce the 35th Annual National Suicide Prevention Conference, scheduled to take place May 14 - 16, 2025, at the Sheraton Parkway Toronto North Hotel & Suites in Richmond Hill, Ontario. This signature event brings together a diverse range of stakeholders, including researchers, front-line clinicians, individuals with lived experience.
This year’s theme, ‘Lean In and Listen,’ encourages us to foster conversations that enhance understanding, inspire transformative change, and advocate for inclusive, evidence-based practices. The conference will offer engaging plenary sessions, specialized breakout sessions, First People’s teachings, opportunities for networking, and events that support hope and healing.
Breakout sessions feature five distinct streams of knowledge sharing including Indigenous Life Promotion, People with Lived Experience, Populations, Occupations, and Research & Trends providing unique perspectives and innovative programming from the suicide prevention and life promotion sector.
Esteemed keynote speakers featured at this year’s conference include Mike Landsberg, a veteran broadcaster and former host of TSN’s Off The Record and founder of #SickNotWeak: a nonprofit dedicated to eradicating stigma and building community, and Dr. Sally Spencer-Thomas, a clinical psychologist, award-winning mental health advocate and co-founder and President of United Suicide Survivors International.
