Local Outreach to the Survivors of Suicide (LOSS)


This program provides immediate hands-on assistance to those newly aggrieved by the loss of a loved one to suicide. A survivor of suicide is defined as anyone who has lost a loved one to suicide. The team is a program of the St. Tammany Parish Coroner’s Office. Two STOPS volunteers, many of whom are suicide survivors themselves, go to the scene of every suicide in the parish to provide comfort and support, to share their experience and knowledge with the new suicide survivors, and to assist in any fashion deemed appropriate. Information and resources are given to the new survivors. For additional information please call LaVondra Dobbs at 985-237-5506.
