In
honor of National Suicide Prevention Week
(September 4 - 10, 2011), Williamson County hosted a ceremony on
September 6th on the south steps of the historic courthouse. The
ceremony was held to raise awareness of the issue of suicide in
our community and to highlight the resources available that could
prevent suicides from occurring. By working together through
awareness, promotion and education, the incidences of suicides can
be reduced.
During the event, 39 teddy bears were placed on the
courthouse steps to symbolize the lives lost last year to suicide in
Williamson County. The bears were donated to the Williamson County
Children’s Advocacy Center, and presented to John Bradley,
president of the Center’s Board of Directors, at the end of the
ceremony.
