safeTALK is a three hour training of LivingWorks Education that prepares anyone over the age of 15 to identify persons with thoughts of suicide and connect them to first aid resources. Most people with thoughts of suicide invite help to stay safe; alert helpers know how to use these opportunities to support that desire for safety.

As a safeTALK-trained suicide alert helper, you will be better able to:

safeTALK is the result of some twenty years of work at learning how to develop useful suicide prevention abilities in a short program. A carefully crafted set of helping steps and the use of creative educational processes make it possible for you and up to 30 others in your community to leave safeTALK willing and able to be suicide alert helpers. Powerful video clips illustrate both non-alert and alert responses, while discussion and practice help stimulate learning.

One great thing about safeTALK is that the model is complimentary to ASIST, in building tiers of safety in a suicide-safer community. safeTALK participants are taught to connect those individuals having thoughts of suicide to ASIST trained individuals (or other intervention models) and it is a great introduction to the topic for those who plan to attend an ASIST course at a later date. That being said, the skills that safeTALK participants learn stand-alone without additional training. 听
