Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST) Workshop


  • Region Ten Community Services Board 500 Old Lynchburg Road Charlottesville, VA, 22903 United States (map)

Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST) is the most widely used intervention skills workshop in the U.S. This free, two-day intensive and practice-dominated course is designed to help give caregivers:

  1. Recognize the risk for suicide

  2. Intervene to prevent immediate harm

  3. Create a “safety for now” plan

  4. Link persons with thoughts of suicide to appropriate help and community resources.

ASIST is often used by professionals in a variety of school, mental health, justice, medical, clergy, or other community “front line” positions. It is for all caregivers, regardless of the age group served. It is also appropriate for friends or family members who are interested in learning skills to help their loved ones at risk of suicide.

April 8-9, 2025, 8:30-4:30 each day 

*You must attend both full-day sessions. If you cannot attend both days or need to leave early, please sign up for another class.
