Wesley LifeForce Suicide Prevention Workshop, Robinvale, VIC

Wesley LifeForce has developed a quality suite of suicide prevention training. Our suicide prevention training equips participants with the knowledge and skills to increase awareness of suicide in Australia, identify the signs that someone may be at risk of suicide and appropriate action to take. Effective interventions can make a real difference and save lives. Our programs aim at training individuals from all walks of life, as well as organisational groups. All Wesley LifeForce facilitators are accredited trainers and have completed suicide intervention training. Below you will find an outline of our workshops.

This workshop is presented by Wesley LifeForce in collaboration with the Robinvale-Euston Suicide Prevention Network (R.E.S.P.N).

Dinner is provided.

Workshop participants will increase confidence in their ability to:

• identify signs that a person is experiencing mental health distress may be at risk of suicide
• offer support, resources and a safe space for open discussion
• ask if the person is considering suicide
• encourage help seeking behaviour.
