About this Event
Texas Suicide Prevention Council’s AS+K? About Suicide to Save a Life is a best practice informed suicide prevention curriculum.
This suicide prevention program teaches lifesaving skills:
• Ask About Suicide: Recognize suicidal risks, thoughts and behaviors.
• Seek More Information About the Individual: their risk factors, warning signs and protective factors
• Safety First!
• Secure Access to Lethal Means
• Know How and Where to Refer someone at risk to care
Like CPR or the Heimlich maneuver, the fundamentals of AS+K? are easily learned. And like CPR and the Heimlich maneuver, the application of AS+K? may save a life.
AS+K? About Suicide to Save a Life:
• Is intended to offer hope through positive action, (not a form of counseling or treatment).
• Teaches the public to recognize the warning signs, clues and suicidal communications of people in psychological distress and what action to take to prevent a possible tragedy.
Workshops are open to any interested individuals, faith based groups, professionals, or community groups.
