Attend the Upcoming 2018 Candlelight Vigil

In recognition of Suicide Prevention Day, HopeNet of Carpinteria will be holding a Candlelight Vigil at Linden Field (at the foot of Linden Avenue near the beach) in Carpinteria. This free community event will take place on Monday, September 10th, 2018. Those participating will honor and remember those who have committed suicide, survivors, will increase sensitivity about suicide and learn about its prevention.

We will have speakers, provide candles, refreshments, and have an information table. If you choose, bring a poem or a remembrance of a loved one.

If you cannot attend the event, but would still like to participate, we ask that you please light a candle near a window at 8pm.
