INDIGENOUS SUICIDE PREVENTION TRAINING
Training in necessary skills to support mob and prevent suicide.
Indigenous-led training programs like Indigenous ASIST and safeYARN are derived from LivingWorks ASIST and safeTALK. These programs aim to equip individuals with the necessary skills to contribute to the safety of our communities and prevent suicide.
I-ASIST
What is Indigenous ASIST (I-ASIST)
I-ASIST is a 2 day in person course that provides a culturally relevant framework for participants to learn how to use an evidence-based model to provide suicide first-aid intervention skills to work with someone with thoughts of suicide and develop a personalised (cultural) safety plan to keep safe-for-now and connect with further help.
safeYARN
What is safeYARN?
safeYARN is a half-day workshop where participants will learn how to identify and connect someone having thoughts of suicide to culturally appropriate support in their community.
Training
Great training. safeYARN is very culturally aware and centred.
