Suicide is preventable, and anyone can make a difference. LivingWorks promotes a layered approach that encourages individuals and organisations to select the training programs best suited to their needs.
SuicideTALK is an introductory program that teaches about suicide and how you can make a difference in your community. Other LivingWorks programs provide in-depth skills to help save lives from suicide. Together, these programs are more than the sum of their parts: they combine to create a whole community that’s safer from suicide.
ASIST stands for Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training. This evidence-based course equips you with the skills to intervene and help prevent suicide.

Suicide awareness courses are an important step towards decreasing the stigma around conversations relating to suicide and saving lives. ASIST empowers participants to take action. The course equips you with the skills and confidence to approach and initiate conversations with those who might be considering suicide.
This training prioritises well-being, and research shows no negative effects from participating. In fact, the benefits extend beyond suicide intervention.
ASIST participants experience a general improvement in their counselling and listening skills, making them more effective communicators in a variety of situations.
