November 22 is Survivor Day, a day dedicated to those who’ve lost someone to suicide. It’s sponsored by the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP)


Hey friends — just a moment on Get the Funk Out to talk about an important day coming up: November 22 is Survivor Day, a day dedicated to those who’ve lost someone to suicide. It’s sponsored by the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) and happens each year on the Saturday before Thanksgiving. 

It’s a chance to connect, share, heal and remember — because when life feels like a bumpy roller‑coaster ride, those moments of community matter.
If this sounds like something you’d benefit from, you can register to attend one of the many local or virtual events. Head to AFSP.org/SurvivorDay where you’ll find a list of gatherings and the virtual event details. 

Whether you’ve lost someone recently or years ago, or you just want to show up in support — you’re not alone.


So mark your calendar for November 22, and take that step. I’m Janeane and this was Get the Funk Out — reminding you that even through our funks, we can find healing together.
