Spring to Wellness: Discussions on Best Practices and Recovery. – Session 1

SP-TIE: Suicide Prevention – Training, Implementation, Evaluation 

As we continue to navigate the new “normal,” our lives and the lives of the people receiving support and services from us continue to be impacted by ongoing stressors, daily changes, social media, and tragic visions from different parts of the world.  Many of us remain fearful, as we wait for the “other shoe to drop.”  As the ACT Institute/CPI continue to pay attention to these occurrences, we want to invite to participate in our latest webinar series – Spring to Wellness: Discussions on Best Practices and Recovery.

Please join Luis Lopez, MA, MS and Dr. Beth Brodsky on Thursday, June 9^th from 11 AM – 12:15 PM for the first session of this 3-part series.

The focus of this session is to support participants in:

• Gaining knowledge about the Assess Intervene Monitor model for suicide prevention.
• Obtaining information on identifying and assessing at risk individuals.
• Gaining knowledge about the suicide safety plan brief intervention
• Recognizing steps for following up and monitoring individuals at risk for suicide

We look forward to your participation.
