safeTalk – FREE

safeTALK is a three-hour face-to-face workshop featuring powerful presentations, audiovisuals, and skills practice. At a safeTALK workshop, you’ll learn how to prevent suicide by recognizing signs, engaging someone, and connecting them to an intervention resource for further support.

A skilled, supportive trainer will guide you through the course, and a community resource will be on hand to support your safety and comfort.

Learning Objectives

• Move beyond common tendencies to miss, dismiss, or avoid suicide
• Identify people who have thoughts of suicide
• Apply the TALK steps (Tell, Ask, Listen, and KeepSafe) to connect a person with thoughts of suicide to suicide first aid intervention caregivers.
