At this past Monday’s dinner meeting, the Moultonborough School District’s School Psychologist, gave an interesting and thought-provoking talk on the history of Moultonborough Health and Suicide Prevention Coalition and provided some useful hand-outs on sources to contact and signs to look for.  While this is a serious topic, Peter managed to inject his own brand of positiveness and include several Lions while making his points.
