The suicide prevention program was dynamic, insightful, practical, and useful. The workshop taught students real-world, life saving tools, packaged in an easy to digest format. I strongly recommend this workshop for any organization looking to providing resources for suicide prevention.

I am so happy I attended this workshop. I genuinely learned so much. There is so much about suicide that I did not know that I now know. I now know how to recognize red flags and how to approach someone who may be suicidal. This workshop also cleared up a lot of false stigmas. Thank you!
