LEARN saves lives: Advanced training for educational staff associates
Most of us have supported students who have expressed suicidal ideation without having clarity on what are the best practice approaches and resources to believe we have met the student's needs. This training combines the researched-based intervention strategies for assessment and safety planning with LEARN. Developed by Forefront, the five simple and effective Forefront Suicide Prevention LEARN® steps empower individuals to help others move in the direction of hope, recovery, and survival. Learning Objectives:
- Understand the public health issue of youth suicide
- LEARN® suicide prevention skills (Including screening and safety planning intervention)
- Integrate prevention approaches into your personal and professional life
The Advanced LEARN® is listed as a model course by the WA Department of Health and meets the 3 hour training requirement (certificate of completion is provided upon completion of the post-test)
