ASIST workshop

Provide a Suicide First-Aid Intervention
LivingWorks ASIST Workshop is recognized as the global leader in suicide intervention training and is a 2-day interactive workshop in suicide first aid.
What Will You Learn?
LivingWorks ASIST helps learners become willing, ready, and able to intervene with someone who has thoughts of suicide. You will learn to:
• Help someone with thoughts of suicide develop a safety plan to keep safe-for-now and connect with further help.
• Apply a Safety Framework to guide the development of this SafePlan through a collaborative, helping relationship.
• Understand how personal and community attitudes about suicide affect someone’s openness to seek help and your ability to provide it.
• Build confidence and capacity in providing suicide first aid.
Who Should Attend?
Anyone aged 16+ years is encouraged to take LivingWorks ASIST. No previous experience or training is required.
LivingWorks ASIST is a training that strengthens your whole community, building a Network of Safety that helps you apply suicide first aid in many settings like schools, homes, workplaces, and as a part of formal caregiving roles.
How Will You Learn?
We aim to provide a safe learning environment. The learning process includes:
• Trainer presentations and powerful videos to stimulate discussion and support learning.
• Extensive opportunities for skills practice.
• Shared participant experiences that enrich learning.
• Trainer-facilitated workgroups to optimize participation.
Direct and honest discussion about suicide is encouraged. While sometimes challenging, this prepares helpers to openly approach people with thoughts of suicide, and to help them keep safe.

Mental Health First Aid - Supporting Youth
Online
Mental Health First Aid – Supporting Youth (Virtual)
The Mental Health Commission of Canada reports that one in every five Canadians experiences a mental health or substance use problem within a given year. These problems often first develop during adolescence or early adulthood. While people often know a lot about physical illness, most people have less knowledge about mental health or substance use problems. This lack of understanding often leads to fear and negative attitudes toward those living with these problems. It prevents people from seeking help for themselves, and from providing appropriate support to people around them
COST: $275 + GST/Participant
DURATION: 8 hours of blended learning over the course of 1 or 2 days (plus 2 hours of self-directed learning)
10 primary credits for MTA members
