About this Event

Welcome to the **Counseling on Access to Lethal Means (CALM)** event! Join us on **Wed Oct 23 2024** at **3:00 PM** at the **Spokane Public Library - Shadle Park** for an informative session on how to prevent suicide by limiting access to lethal means. A huge thank you to West Spokane Wellness Partnership for sponsoring this event and making it possible to attend for free.

CALM is a practical intervention to increase the time and distance between individuals at risk of suicide and the most common and lethal methods of suicide, particularly firearms. The oldest and most widely-used training on lethal means safety, CALM teaches why means matter and equips individuals with tools to intervene effectively with those at risk for suicide both upstream–before a crisis hits–as well as in times of crisis. Versions are available for both clinicians and non-clinicians.

Worried about a loved one? Work in a job that brings you into contact with individuals who might be at risk of suicide but feel unequipped to intervene? Learn how you can help keep them safe - no clinical background required for CALM Convo.

This in-person event will provide valuable insights and strategies for individuals and communities to promote safety and well-being. Don't miss out on this opportunity to learn and connect with others who are passionate about mental health and suicide prevention. See you there!
