About this Event
Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST) is a two-day interactive workshop in suicide first aid. ASIST teaches participants to recognize when someone may have thoughts of suicide and work with them to create a plan that will support their immediate safety. Participants do not need any formal training to attend the workshop.
DATES: May 13 - 14, 2024 (Monday - Tuesday). Attendance on both days is required.
TIME: Class is from 9am -5pm each day. Please plan to arrive between 8:30 and 9:00 a.m. so that you can get checked in before class each day, especially on the first day. There is construction nearby, so please allow extra time to account for this.
