International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day

International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day is an event in which survivors of suicide loss come together to find connection, understanding, and hope through their shared experience. This year, International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day is Saturday, November 22, 2025.

Survivor Day Live & Día De Esperanza/Day of Hope

In addition to sponsoring in-person events across the globe for International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day, AFSP hosts two virtual events for survivors of suicide loss, Survivor Day Live and Día De Esperanza.

Survivor Day Live takes place on the Saturday of International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day. The event features a special screening of an AFSP-produced documentary and a panel discussion featuring loss survivors' experiences and healing journeys.

Día de Esperanza/Day of Hope takes place on the day before International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day. This event includes a Spanish language panel discussion about the perspectives on mental health and suicide loss in Hispanic and Latinx culture.

Survivor Day Live and Día De Esperanza (Day of Hope) stream on Facebook and YouTube.
