@lzgirlsbball@ashley06060@ninaguarisco @lzhsathletes So proud of these two! I remember how nervous I was to coach my first season, and these two freshmen made me so at ease with their huge hearts, their goofiness, and by how they hard they worked every day. Good luck tonight ladies ☺️ 🐻
How we talk about, write about and report on suicide matters. It is always helpful to share resources and messages of hope, but including inaccurate or misleading data can unintentionally reinforce myths or normalize suicide as a common response to hardship
While suicidal and self-harm thinking is up, we do not have evidence that suicide rates are up. Prevent the spread of misinformation by thoroughly researching facts and statistics found on social media before sharing them. https://t.co/BDL8P4jQOc
