Parent Suicide Prevention Training
Elyssa’s Mission’s NEW Video Training Series is designed to help parents and caregivers take an active role in suicide prevention, and be better equipped to keep their child or teen safe. Whether you want to better understand what signs to look for, how to talk to your child about potential concerns, or when to seek treatment, this series can help. The videos are all designed to “stand alone” so select the topics that matter most to you. Please also check out our “Library of Resources” for additional tools.
