Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST)

Learn the skills to help save a life.

LivingWorks Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST) is a two-day interactive workshop in suicide first aid. ASIST teaches participants to recognize when someone may have thoughts of suicide and work with them to create a plan that will support their immediate safety.

Over the course of their two-day workshop, ASIST participants learn to:
