ASIST is a two-day intensive, interactive and practice-dominated course designed to help caregivers recognize and review risk and intervene to prevent the immediate risk of suicide. It is by far the most widely used, acclaimed, and researched suicide intervention training workshop in the world. ASIST prepares caregivers of all kinds to provide suicide first aid interventions.

This is a two-day workshop.  Workshop instruction starts at 8:30am and finishes by 4:30pm both days.  Please ensure that you can attend both days for the entire time.

• In this workshop you will have an opportunity to explore your experiences with and your attitudes about suicide.  You will also have an opportunity to better understand the needs of a person at risk of suicide and learn how to use suicide first-aid to meet those needs.  If these activities concern you, please talk to one of your trainers.
