Please register on the Living Works website at www.livingworks.net under safeTALK T4T. The registration fee includes material and lunch. Please circulate to your networks
Please see attached brochure and contact information at the end of the message.

Suicide alertness for everyone
Help is available for people who are at risk of
suicide. A suicide-safer community needs many
people who are suicide alert.
More safeTALK trainers are needed.

Who can become a safeTALK trainer?
The safeTALK Training for Trainers (T4T) is open to anyone who has
completed an ASIST workshop, has good presentation and group
facilitation skills, and is committed to promoting suicide safety through
open and direct talk about suicide.

What happens at a safeTALK T4T?
Candidates who have completed ASIST: After pre-session
study, up to ten trainer candidates experience a full day of onsite
coaching with a trainer Instructor. Alternatively, there is a two-day onsite
format with much less pre-study and a demonstration of safeTALK. In
both, candidates learn our important core beliefs about suicide. Mostly,
they practice facilitating the workshop, learning from their instructor
and from each other in a tightly structured format.

Candidates who have NOT completed ASIST: In some agencies and
organizations, a three-day T4T is available. This includes ASIST training
in addition to the pre-study and a full day of onsite safeTALK coaching.

What does it cost?
The price of the one- and two-day T4Ts vary, depending on availability of a
local instructor and organizing costs. All trainer materials and registration in
the safeTALK trainer network are included. The three-day T4T that includes
ASIST is available only to larger organizations and costs slightly more.

How do I register for a safeTALK T4T?

a safeTALK T4T to your community.
