Margie Anderson
Prevention Specialist, Facilitator & Community Advocate
Margie brings more than a decade of experience in suicide prevention, education, community outreach and peer support, grounded in a deep belief in the power of human connection.
Since 2015, she has served the La Frontera EMPACT community, first as a volunteer and now as a prevention specialist. She facilitates Survivors of Suicide support groups, provides suicide prevention education throughout Maricopa County and works in schools and community settings to strengthen awareness, prevention and access to support. Through the L.O.S.S. Team, Margie also works alongside first responders, providing compassionate support and resources to individuals and families following a suicide death.
As a mother of four, Margie brings a practical understanding of parenting, relationships, competing responsibilities and the realities people carry behind the scenes. Her lived experience with mental health challenges and suicide loss adds another layer of perspective to her professional and community expertise, deepening her understanding of grief, resilience and the importance of meaningful connection.
Margie is especially passionate about reaching young people early and creating inclusive spaces where teens and adults can develop healthier ways to navigate stress, anxiety, grief, isolation and change.
Through Good Vibrations & MEDITATION, Margie brings together prevention, facilitation, mindfulness, sound and community to create accessible experiences where people can slow down, reconnect and feel supported.
