HSABC Webinar: Suicide Prevention Checklist

January 26, 2021, 10:00 - 11:30 AM

HSABC's Suicide Risk Factor Checklist webinar discusses how to use the suicide prevention checklist for providing information to local mental health providers, hospitals, and health authorities. HSABC's Suicide Risk Factor Checklist webinar teaches participants how to transfer pertinent information that mental health workers can use to engage vulnerable and at-risk populations. The Suicide Risk Factor Checklist Tool is not intended to replace a qualified mental health assessment. Rather, HSABC’s Suicide Risk Factor Checklist webinar is an interactive learning experience that can help participants effectively address risk factors in a supportive environment.
