Campus Connect: Suicide Prevention Training

Suicide Prevention for Faculty/Staff

Campus Connect Suicide Prevention Training for Faculty/Staff

Designed specifically for a college/university community, Campus Connect is an interactive, experiential training focused on enhancing knowledge, awareness, and skills concerning college student suicide. Emphasis is placed on developing empathic listening skills, communication skills, and the ability to compassionately and directly ask students about their suicidal thoughts. It is an interactive training program that includes:

  • Review of college student suicide statistics and facts
  • Discussion of suicide myths and warning signs
  • Instruction on how to ask students if they are thinking about suicide and how to refer students to appropriate resources
  • Review of effective communication and relationship-building skills
  • Discussion of typical emotional reactions experienced both by students in crisis and responding gatekeepers
  • Participation in experiential exercises
  • Participation in a guided group role play

Please contact Erika (ekeath@uwlax.edu) to register.  Registration is limited to 25 participants.  A similar Campus Connect program for students will be offered later this semester.
