Every Oredigger has a role to play when it comes to suicide prevention. If you’re new to campus or looking to refresh your skills, the Office of Student Wellness Promotion & Education is hosting a great in-depth training in May for the Mines community.
The free ASIST training will be held from 8:30am to 4:30pm Wednesday-Thursday, May 25-26 in the Student Center - Ballroom D. Lunch will be provided.
The ASIST Suicide Intervention Skills Workshop is for people who want to feel more comfortable, confident and competent in helping to prevent the immediate risk of suicide. During this two-day, highly interactive, practical and practice-oriented workshop, ASIST teaches trainees to provide skilled intervention and develop a collaborative safety plan to keep someone safe and alive.

Who should attend ASIST? The Every Oredigger team would like at least one person from each academic and administrative department to be ASIST trained, in addition to those who are interested in being trained in these more in-depth intervention skills. Attendees should be retrained every 3 years. Attendees must be present for the entire training, which consists of two full days.
