ASIST (Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training) is designed to teach
skills to help caregivers competently and confidently intervene with an
individual at risk of suicide. ASIST prepares caregivers and helpers from
all walks of life to integrate principles of intervention into everyday
practice.
ASIST is divided into four learning modules: attitudes, knowledge,
intervention & resources. Skills and principles are illustrated with
case studies, videos, live dramatizations, simulations and practice
exercises utilizing a Suicide Intervention Model and workbook.
Upon completion, participants are better able to:
• Reduce attitudinal barriers that hinder one’s ability to be direct and
comfortable in suicidal situations
• Dispel myths about suicide
• Practice intervention techniques
• Develop a collaborative resource network
