Healthy Campus will offer a Tigers Together Suicide Prevention Advocacy Training on Wednesday, April 15. Open to all students, faculty and staff, this experiential training enhances participants’ knowledge, awareness and skills related to college student suicide. Emphasis is placed on developing empathic listening and communication skills, as well as the ability to compassionately and directly ask students about suicidal thoughts. Through increased awareness of their own emotional reactions, advocates can more effectively respond to students’ emotional needs and increase the likelihood of meaningful connections to appropriate professional resources.

The training will take place from 3:30-4:45 p.m. in 260 Daniel Hall Expansion on April 15. Register online through Tiger Training.

Tigers Together Suicide Prevention Advocacy Trainings can be requested for groups at any time using the Healthy Campus Program Request form.
