Equips adults with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to recognise, understand and respond to a friend, family member, co-worker, or other person, engaging in non-suicidal self-injury.

The Conversations About Non-Suicidal Self-Injury course teaches participants how to provide initial support to someone who may be engaging in non-suicidal self-injury, until professional help is received, or the crisis resolves.

Course participants learn how to recognise and respond to the person engaging in non-suicidal self-injury, and the interventions and supports available to encourage pathways to professional help.

Using a practical, evidence-based action plan, participants learn how to approach someone they are concerned about and initiate a conversation about those concerns. Participants also learn how to offer initial support and information and how to encourage the person to seek professional help or other supports.

This course is recognised by Suicide Prevention Australia as a safe, high-quality, and effective suicide prevention program.
