Healthy Campus will offer Tigers Together Suicide Prevention Advocacy Trainings in early February. 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.

Upcoming open sessions include:

Wednesday, February 4
3:30-4:45 p.m.
260 Daniel Hall Expansion

Thursday, February 5
11 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.
