Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST)

Event date: This event has already passed.

ASIST is a FREE two-day interactive workshop in suicide first aid. ASIST teaches participants to recognize when someone may have thoughts of suicide and work with them to create a plan that will support their immediate safety. Although ASIST is widely used by healthcare providers, participants don’t need any formal training to attend the workshop—anyone 16 or older can learn and use the ASIST model.

Since its development in 1983, ASIST has received regular updates to reflect improvements in knowledge and practice, and over 1 million people have taken the workshop. Studies show that the ASIST method helps reduce suicidal feelings in those at risk and is a cost-effective way to help address the problem of suicide.

PLEASE NOTE: If you have experienced a suicide loss in the last 30+ days, we do not recommend taking taking a training until you’ve had more time to process your loss.
