April 2013 Presented by Lifeline Canberra Is it for me?
Do you talk with clients as part of your role?
Are your clients facing difficult life circumstances or events?
Do you ever get the feeling that something is not quite right...?
ASIST equips you with the skills to help those at risk of suicide so
that YOU can make a difference!

What is it?
ASIST is a two-day interactive workshop which aims to improve
participants suicide awareness and prevention skills. The course is
presented by LivingWorks-accredited facilitators, who use
internationally standardised resources and materials. Participants are
trained to recognise when a person may be at risk and how to respond to
improve the immediate and long-term safety of the person at risk.

After completing the course, participants will be able to

* recognise the warning signs

* discuss suicide with a person at risk in a direct manner

* develop a 'safeplan' for people at risk; and

* help the person to keep themself safe!
ASIST takes place over two days and runs from 9am to 5pm each day.
