My name is Lisa Klein and I am the director of THE S WORD. As a survivor of both my father’s and brother’s suicides, I have struggled with the ‘whys’ for years, along with the guilt, shame, and confusion that lingers in suicide’s wake. I will never know why my dad ended his life. And, nobody talked about my brother. My mother could never bring herself to say the words, “My son killed himself.” No mother should have to say that. Ever.

There is no more highly charged personal issue for me, and for that reason I am driven to document it and open a much needed conversation. It is time for us to boldly talk about suicide because no family should have to experience that which radiates outward for generations to come.

Join us on Sunday, January 13, 2019, from 3:00pm-5:00pm, as we watch The S word and have a panel discussion and Q & A with Lisa, at Temple Israel, 13111 Sterling Ridge Drive, Omaha, NE 68154.

Free event, open to everyone.
