SafeTALK - Suicide Alertness For Everyone
This event has passed Get Tickets
Event description
A half-day suicide alertness workshop that prepares anyone over the age of 15
to become a suicide-alert helper.
Most people with thoughts of suicide don’t truly want to die, but are struggling with the pain in their lives. Through their words and actions, they invite help to stay alive. safeTALK-trained helpers can recognize these invitations and take action by connecting them with life-saving intervention resources, such as caregivers trained in ASIST.
Workshop features:
- Presentations and guidance from a LivingWorks registered trainer
- Access to support from a local community resource person
- Powerful audio-visual learning aids
- The simple yet effective TALK steps: Tell, Ask, Listen, and KeepSafe
- Hands-on skills practice and development
