Suicide Prevention Training

More than 40,000 Americans die by suicide each year. Suicide is the 8th leading cause of death in Utah. Within just the past 12 months, more than 10% of WSU students have seriously considered suicide, and 2% have made an attempt. Yet 90% of people in suicidal crisis will give some kind of warning … and you can help save a life. This presentation will teach you how to recognize the verbal, situational, and behavioral clues to suicide; how to ask a person if they are in suicidal crisis; how to persuade a suicidal person to seek help; and how to make referrals for treatments that can help.

 

For questions about the training program, please contact the Training Director, Juancarlos Santisteban, LMFT, by calling 801-626-6406.
