Looking Forward – CMHA-Alberta and the Center for Suicide Prevention
This half-day workshop is for people working with youth ages 12 to 24.

Relevant intervention strategies are explored through videos and case studies. This workshop may be offered virtually or in-person.
At the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
Identify unique characteristics of youth and their relevance to suicide;
Compare suicidal and self-harm behaviour in youth;
Identify protective factors, risk factors, and warning signs in youth; and
Confidently transfer care of a youth to a caregiver.
