Move beyond common tendencies to miss, dismiss and avoid talking about suicide.
Notice and respond to situations in which thoughts of suicide may be present.
Apply basic TALK steps (Tell, Ask, Listen & KeepSafe)
Connect the person with thoughts of suicide to suicide first aid to help and further community resources.
