The parents of 16-year-old Felicity Donovan, an Indigenous student from South Surrey who died by suicide in December 2023, have filed a lawsuit against the Surrey School District and Fraser Health Authority. The claim alleges systemic negligence, failure to provide culturally safe mental-health support, and attempts to conceal liability. The family seeks damages, a public apology, Indigenous-led suicide-prevention training for staff, and systemic reforms to protect other students.
