Harm Reduction Approach to Self-Injury (Jan '25)

Learn what self-injury is, why people do it and how to be a better support when it happens.
About this Event

Join us on-line for a two-day workshop on Monday, January 6th and Tuesday January 7th that will explore the reasons why people self-injure, different types of self-injury, why people self-injure and how to support people who are self-injuring in the most effective way possible (including managing our own fears so they don’t get in the way or drive us to do something that is more harm than help).

Each day will run 12pm to 4pm Eastern (11am to 3pm Central, 10am to 2pm Mountain, 9am to 1pm Pacific, etc.)

This workshop is open to anyone including clinicians, peer supporters, family members, first responders and others interested in learning how to better support a person who is self-injuring. Trainers (Jennifer Tirado and Liz Mombourquette) will be people who have histories of self-injury themselves and will share some of their own story.
