ISANA Sanity Branch – Suicide Prevention Workshop
CLICK HERE to BOOK NOW!
Only 30 places available!
ISANA SANiTy is hosting a workshop on Suicide Prevention which is run by Wesley Lifeforce. This 6 hour training course comes very highly recommended and is an excellent staff training tool so we can do our very best to recognise signs that students are in need of assistance. The workshop helps participants recognise when a person may be having thoughts of suicide, and provides strategies to intervene and assist them.
Wesley Lifeforce is not a counselling service and the training may not be suitable for those recently bereaved by suicide.
Di Merrit, Wesley Lifeforce Facilitiator, has worked in suicide prevention since 2003 as a volunteer telephone counsellor and held the position of Gambling Counsellor in Far West NSW before moving to Sydney in 2011 to take on the position of Clubs NSW Gambling Counsellor. She has had 16 years experience facilitating workshops such as ASIST, Best Bets, CALM and Mental Health First Aid, and have been delivering Wesley Lifeforce workshops since 2017.
