Join us for an amazing interview with the founder of "A Voice at the Table!" Annemarie Matulis is a survivor of childhood trauma and adult domestic violence and has spent 35 years balancing careers in the public, private and non-profit sectors including domestic violence, substance misuse and suicide prevention.

With decades of experience as a community activist, advocate and organizer, she is a recognized change agent within public health in the United States. Emotionally impacted by the suicidal crisis of a mentee, she co-founded, with that mentee Tracey Medeiros, A Voice at the Table, a grassroots, soul-care movement for the family/friends emotionally impacted by the suicidal crises of a loved one.

An educator, trainer, curriculum developer, Matulis sits on the Executive Committee of the American Association of Suicidology (AAS). She is the Director of the AAS Impacted Family & Friends Division and member of the newly created Lived Experience Advisory Committee for the US national Suicide Prevention Resource Center (SPRC.org). Matulis is producer of two documentaries A Voice at the Table (2014) and Voices Still Unheard (2016) which are focused on suicide attempt survivors and their impacted families.

In 2013/2014, she co-developed a psych-educational, wellness check workshop series for attempt & loss survivors further along the recovery path, Re-Energize & Re-Connect, and a retreat workshop series for the impacted family, Finding Inner Peace. These were developed to help fill the vacuum of protective factor resources. This project has continued to grow and expand.
