At this Suicide Education and Response event, we gained much-needed information about current statistics on suicide in the U.S., learned myths vs. facts on suicide ideation, gained an understanding of the process of suicide ideation in the brain, learned tools for facilitating a conversation with someone who may be experiencing thoughts of suicide and how to build a safety and follow-up plan, and reviewed resources. Please watch the replay and share this info as wide as you can!
