Self-Injury Awareness Day is on the 1st of March every year, as it has been for for twenty years or more.

 

SIAD is an international event that is recognised across the globe.

 

LifeSIGNS is proud to have supported Self-Injury Awareness Day since we launched in 2002, and we’re the number one resource for SIAD material.

 

Raising awareness about self-injury is incredibly important. Awareness leads to understanding and empathy, banishing judgment and fear, and reducing the number of people who feel alone and suffer in silence.

 

Raising awareness is about educating people who do not self-injure, and reaching out to people who do.
