ON Sept. 9 2022, the SSHS Manta Ray Battalion cadets, alongside with the cadets from MHS and KHS, took part in the “ Light Up the Night “ event held by the CNMI Suicide Prevention Program. It took place at Civic Center Susupe from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Cadets were able to show their support to our community by participating in the walk to spread awareness for individuals who have had thoughts about suicide, attempted suicide, and most especially for the families that have lost a loved one due to suicide.
Throughout the walk cadets called cadence, lit up candles, and were able to get free items provided by the CNMI Suicide Prevention Program, such as t-shirts, lanyards, PopSockets, etc.
This event wouldn’t have happened if it weren’t for the staff of the CNMI Suicide Prevention Program.
