Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST)

ASIST and SafeTalk is developed and researched by LivingWorks and has been helping communities all over the world become suicide safer since 1983. LivingWorks programs are part of national, regional and organizational suicide prevention strategies around the world. The learning experiences are interactive, practical, regularly updated and customizable for all.

Our vision with ASIST is a suicide-safer community. This training helps caregivers of all kinds learn suicide intervention through two-day, intense training that helps individuals recognize red flags and response to invitations for help. It provides the confidence to ask about suicide and provides the education to deal with the answers. This interactive program includes teaching, discussion, videos and skill practice. The emphasis of the ASIST workshop is suicide first-aid, helping a person at risk stay safe and be able to seek further help.
