    ..to Show your support for the prevention of LGBT suicide and self harm. Too many LGBT people go through self harm and attempt or complete suicide because of the oppression, the guilt, the shame and the negative emotions they feel due to the challenges they face.

    So wear something purple September 1st!

    Wait, what? Is it today (Sept. 2) or yesterday? I always hear about this stuff at the last minute or when it's too late. And can it be anything purple? :confused:

    I'm not sure if in Canada is different, but I know that in the states Spirit Day is around October 20th.

    There are tons of events, so I could be wrong, but if you missed this one then mark your calendars for October! :slight_smile:
