According to the National Institute for Mental Health, one in five Americans are living with a mental illness. Knowing how to recognize the Signs that someone is struggling can literally be a lifesaver, and a Medford course can provide this knowledge.
Jackson County Health and Human Services is offering a session of Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training, and it will run for two days. It is an evidence-based program, and is offered in venues all over the country.
The participants in the short course will learn how to recognize Signs that an individual is in crisis. They will discuss ways to offer support and other help that can connect the person with the supports in their community that can supply them with professional mental healthcare. Time will also be spent discussing how they can reach out to someone if they are concerned that they may be struggling.
The registration fee for the two days is $50, and as the usual fee is $200, it represents a significant savings. Refreshments will be offered to the group on both days. Print shops can provide various styles of learning materials for an event like this, and its staff can aid its customers in choosing the ones that are a good fit for their needs.
This opportunity to learn a set of skills that may save a life will be held on October 24 and 25. It will be offered at 140 South Holly Street.
