SafeTALK



SafeTALK is a half-day alertness training that prepares anyone 15 or older, regardless of prior experience or training, to become a suicide-alert helper.  Most people with thoughts of suicide don't truly want to die, but are struggling with the pain in their lives.  Through their words and actions, they invite help to stay alive.  SafeTALK-trained helpers can recognize these invitations and take action by connecting them with life-saving intervention resources, such as caregivers trained in ASIST.  Since its development in 2006, safeTALK has been used in over 20 countries around the world.  Suicide aware helpers are an important part of suicide-safer communities, working alongside intervention resources to identify and avert suicide risks.  Participants will learn to Notice and respond to situations where suicide may be evident.
