My name is Christopher Beach and I presently in Winnipeg Manitoba. I am a teacher and a counselor and have been teaching since I received my teaching degree from the University of Manitoba in 1991. I also have a counseling certificate from the same University.I come from a large family of 11 children, 6 girls and 5 boys. 8 of my siblings have university degrees from the University of Manitoba and 3 of my sisters have their masters degree in Education field.I have a total of 7 children and many other foster children which I raised mostly as a single parent.For most of my career, I have worked with Aboriginal youth and believe I have a good understanding of their issues.I am also of… Aboriginal decent and am recognized as a Metis person, although I am eligible to be recognized by the Canadian government as a registered Indian.I follow the Aboriginal culture and also conduct some of the teachings and ceremonies.Through out my life, I have had many friends and relatives take their own lives and when one of my foster son committed suicide in 2005, I decided to write this book in order to help this epidemic that pledges our communities. Although I wrote this book for an Aboriginal youth audience, I believe anyone who reads this book will benefit from it.
