38 Carla na Nagara: Director, Suicide Prevention Office, MoH

Apr 21, 2021

Carla and Harv Getting to the heart of what motivates a person to become a Coroner, and then Director, Suicide Prevention Office at the Ministry of Health, was what I was hoping to get to in this long-awaited chat with Carla na Nagara. I think we nailed it in this very precious and informative interview on a challenging topic.
