Course Description:

Many of us have confided in others during dark times and vice versa. But it can feel awkward, if not downright frightening, not knowing what to do when a loved one or a peer shows suicide warning signs.

Developed by Forefront Suicide Prevention at the University of Washington, you will learn a five-step process using our LEARN model - based on best practices outlined by the federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration (SAMHSA) - to help you talk with someone you’re worried about, learn if they are considering suicide, and take early steps to keep them safe. 

Webinar Objectives:

  • Explain the public health issue of suicide & why people consider suicide
  • Identify, understand, and be ready to support someone who may be at risk for suicide using Forefront's LEARN model
  • Apply the LEARN steps in a practice scenario.

This workshop has been approved for 1 CEU by the Washington Chapter, National Association of Social Workers (NASW) for Licensed Social Workers, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapists and Licensed Mental Health Counselors. Our Provider number is #1975-473.
