sAFETALK TRAINING

LivingWorks safeTALK is a four-hour face-to-face workshop featuring powerful presentations, audiovisuals, and skills practice.

 

Sunfl owers have funded our own SafeTalk trainer who will facilitate our courses and either an ASIST trainer or other Sunfl owers volunteers will be on hand to support your safety and comfort.

 

At the workshop, you will learn:

  • How to prevent suicide by recognising signs,

  • Skills to engage with someone, 

  • How to connect them to further support.

  • How to use a simple yet effective model 

 

safeTALK empowers everyone to make a difference.

 

All LivingWorks’ core programs are evidence-based. Here is what over 15 peer-reviewed reports and government studies on LivingWorks safeTALK found:

  • Improves trainee skills and readiness

  • Safe for trainees, with no adverse effects from training

  • Effective for participants as young as 15 years old

  • Helps break down suicide stigma in the community

  • Better skill retention compared to other connector programs
