Join The Pacific Southwest MHTTC team for part 2 of this 2-part series. This workshop provides parents and caregivers a space to learn more about common myths and facts about suicide risk in young children. We will discuss some of the risk factors for suicide, as well as how to recognize warning signs that a child may be considering suicide. We will practice ways to talk with children about suicide in an age-appropriate way, as well as how to take action and secure professional help if a child is in danger.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

  • Gain a deeper understanding of risk factors and warning signs of suicide in young children.
  • Learn developmentally-appropriate ways parents and caregivers can talk with their children about suicide.
  • Learn action steps parents and caregivers can take in responding to suicide risks in their children, including how to make their environments safer and connect children to professional support.
