The event is open to anyone in the community of St. Margaret’s who is interested in education and training around supporting mental health in our community.
SafeTALK is a training programme that prepares participants to identify persons with thoughts of suicide and connect them to suicide first aid resources. These specific skills are called suicide alertness and are taught with the expectation that the person learning them will use them to help reduce suicide risk in their communities. Following a safeTALK workshop you will be more willing and able to perform an important helping role for persons with thoughts of suicide.
The aim of this programme is to increase the ability to promote the immediate safety of someone who may be at risk of suicide and provide links to further help.
How does safeTALK help prevent suicide?
SafeTALK suicide alert helpers are trained to:
- Move beyond common tendencies to miss, dismiss or avoid signs of suicide.
- Identify people who have thoughts of suicide.
- Apply the TALK steps to connect a person with suicidal thoughts to people and agencies that can help.
Training is open to all over age 18, and is free of charge to attend. Anyone affected by a recent bereavement through suicide may consider attending a later training.
