Zero Suicide Alliance - Free Suicide Awareness Training

On the 10th September 2022, it is World Suicide Prevention Day

Let's Talk about Suicide and Make it a preventable death!

Thanks to Zero Suicide Alliance for providing training, evidence-based and interactive resources for supporting communities in preventing suicide.

Follow the three steps - SEE - SAY - SIGNPOST - to prevent suicide

Notice if someone looks tired or irritable. Ask the person if they are OK, we shall show our concerns and invite them to share their feelings.

We need to identify the latter as a risk factor a person does not feel that they belong somewhere.

There are more information and cues in the training and I with all my heart invite you to complete it and share it with others.

Ambivalent feelings about staying or leaving

Do you want to stay in one place and be rooted to ground yourself in a specific environment? Do you want to be leaving and go to different places to elevate yourself? Can you do both at the same time?
