Whether directly or indirectly, most people with thoughts of suicide invite help to stay safe. safeTALK is a 3-4 hour training that prepares participants to recognize these invitations and connect a person with thoughts of suicide to intervention resources. Powerful videos illustrate the importance of suicide alertness, while discussion and practice stimulate learning.
By the end of the training, participants will be better able to:
1) Move beyond common tendencies to miss, dismiss or avoid suicide
2) Recognize people who have thoughts of suicide, and
3) Apply the TALK steps to connect a person with thoughts of suicide to a suicide first-aid intervention caregiver.
Cost is $50 per participant
In-person seating is limited to 8 participants. For COVID safety: masks are required, hand-sanitizer will be provided and seating will be 6 feet apart.
