Hear from professionals who've learned with us before.

The information was important for the audience, and the presenters were knowledgeable and engaging.

This will help me be direct in my questioning and inform my practice. I feel better suited to approach a suicide crisis in a confident way and provide effective resources.

- Clinician

I appreciate the learning opportunity, and I am more confident on my practice after the training.

- Social Worker

I learned additional words to ask if a person is having suicidal ideation, which helped alleviate my fears of being too direct or not direct enough.

I would like to thank you for setting up the suicide prevention training for the Masters of Social Work Student Organization. It was great and very informative!
