At a LivingWorks safeTALK workshop, you’ll learn how to prevent suicide by recognizing signs, engaging someone, and connecting them to an intervention resource for further support. A skilled, supportive trainer will guide you through the course, and a community resource will be on hand to support your safety and comfort.

• Improves participant skills and readiness.
• Safe for participants, with no adverse effects from training
• Effective for participants as young as 15 years old
