SPRING COURSES

Living Works ASIST
Suicide Prevention First Aid

LivingWorks ASIST is a two-day in-person workshop for individuals or groups (8+) featuring powerful audiovisuals, discussions, and simulations where you will learn how to recognize:

 

  • When someone may be thinking about suicide.

  • How to provide a skilled intervention and develop a safety plan with the person to connect them to further support.

  • Consider how personal and community attitudes about suicide affect someone’s openness to seek help and your ability to provide it.

  • Increase your willingness, confidence, and capacity to provide suicide first aid.
     

Two knowledgeable, supportive trainers will guide you through the course, ensuring a comfortable and safe learning environment.
