Suicide Prevention
Suicide is a global issue.

It can be difficult to comprehend why people want to take their own life, but it is important to understand that many of them don’t. To them, it is the only way to escape from their pain – their only choice. Suicide, however, is preventable. There are other options. With the right education and knowledge to support, we can all make a difference in someone’s life. Spreading suicide awareness is the key to suicide prevention.

Whether you are concerned about a loved one and wish to learn more about how you can help, or whether you are worried about your own symptoms, or simply curious about how you can make a difference to someone who is struggling, this course can be beneficial for you. It includes details of how best to approach a difficult intervention conversation, and a list of support services, helplines and webchats that can help those in need.
