Prevention is better than cure. Always. But especially when most suicides are avoidable. Did you know that every 40 seconds someone dies of suicide around the world? It’s a staggering statistic, isn’t it? It’s also a pity that so many of us take this option out of desperation and disengagement. The good news is – there are some very useful actions we can take to help people contemplating suicide.

Would you, or your loved ones, know what to look for? Are you familiar with the warning signs? Would you know what to say?

What You’ll Find In The Course:

Module 1: Introduction to Suicide
Module 2: Why People Suicide
Module 3: Warning Signs of Suicide
Module 4: What Do I Do?
Module 5: Looking After Me

Suicidal people don’t always talk about their thoughts clearly, so how would people fare with your help? Are you ready?
