Left 2 Live part 1

In the fall of 2009, the BC Council for Families in collaboration with the University of Victoria's School of Child and Youth Care, embarked on an ambitious project to document the experiences of youth who have lost a friend or loved one to suicide. The goal was to create a learning tool for practitioners who work with young people, to assist them in understanding and responding to the unique aspects of the grieving and healing process in teens and young adults. The result is Left 2 Live, an emotionally powerful documentary exploration of the personal journeys of BC teens who have experienced loss through suicide, and who bravely, candidly, and sometimes humourously share their stories.
