Suicide Prevention

Friday, April 26, 10:00-11:30 a.m., MGH 171E
Facilitator: Ellen Taylor, Ph.D., Assistant Vice-President for Student Life, Director of Counseling Center and Clinical Psychologist

One and one-half hour interactive workshop for advisers to increase knowledge, awareness, and skills concerning college student suicide. Advisers are in a unique position to recognize a crisis and the warning signs that someone may be contemplating suicide. Through the use of experiential exercises and open discussion, this workshop will focus on preparing for the situation of interacting with a student in distress including working through feelings of isolation so that they may benefit from referral and connection to resources.

WORKSHOP FULL. To be added to the waitlist, please email Susan Inman at susani@uw.edu.
