communicate to get them the help they need.

Statistics show that 80% of people that die by suicide are of working ages, 18 to 65. As

adults spend about one-third of their lives at work, the workplace can be an opportune

platform for crisis intervention programs.

Learn how to identify the myths about suicide, know the warning signs, how to effectively

communicate with a suicidal person, and how to help them obtain evaluation and treatment.

This training focuses on psychological first aid for the veteran population and is also

applicable to everyone.

Participants will learn the following:

  • Suicide warning signs
  • How to act during a conversation
  • How to ask the right questions
  • Available support resources

Event is preceded and concluded with networking opportunities—refreshments and

libations will be served.’
