About This Event
Join the Nate Chute Foundation in partnership with Forefront for a presentation on the proprietary LEARN model, which follows the standards for gatekeeper training laid out by SAMHSA and the CDC.
Gatekeeper trainings help professionals and community members identify and support people at risk for suicide and is a valuable part of comprehensive suicide prevention programming. We work with high-risk industries, special populations, and professionals working in the field, but we also offer general training for communities or workplaces looking to strengthen their suicide prevention programming and awareness.
This event is free thanks to our generous donors and sponsors.
What You’ll Learn:
- Apply the LEARN steps in a practice scenario
- Explain the public health issue of suicide & why people consider suicide
- Identify, understand, and be ready to support someone who may be at risk for suicide using Forefront’s LEARN model.
Many of us have confided in others during dark times and vice versa. But it can feel awkward, if not downright frightening, not knowing what to do when a loved one or a peer shows suicide warning signs. Developed by Forefront, the five simple and effective LEARN steps empower individuals to help others move in the direction of hope, recovery, and survival.
