- recognize when someone may be thinking about suicide
- provide a skilled intervention
- develop a safety plan with the person to connect them to further support
You will also consider how personal and community attitudes about suicide affect someone’s openness to seek help and your ability to provide it.
This workshop will help increase your confidence and capacity to provide suicide first- aid.
Two knowledgeable, supportive Inuvialuit trainers will guide you through the course, ensuring a comfortable and safe learning environment.
