Minutes of Meeting Connecting Trust was set up by Ms. Arnawaz Damania in 2005, to offer a non-judgmental, non- advisory, confidential and anonymous Listening Service for those feeling low, distressed and/or suicidal. On Thursday, 1st Feb. their team headed by Ms. Sandy Dias Andrade, Mentor and Ms. Sukhada Khisti, CEO shared their experience on how the CT team saved lives of mentally distressed individuals over the decades. By 2022-23 this team was successful in saving nearly twenty thousand lives of individuals through their compassionate, empathetic caring and loving listening! Yet another astonishing revelation by them was that every suicide could affect nearly 110 lives. They provide service of support and solace to those left behind. One important factor in this healing process is ‘mindful listening’, through the process of Listening the CT team could ‘Connect’ with the feelings of each individual and provide solace to each potential victim be it a case of failure, harassment, domestic violence or other related issues. Indeed, this Trust’s approach has been to teach in each case on how to climb a wall when one runs into a wall. This Trust’s activities have been a testament on how the therapeutic power of love help in preventing, and providing a healing touch in mental and moral disturbances. Love, care and empathy can save lives as attempted suicides are many times more than actual suicides.
