SUICIDE PREVENTION KIT FROM EACH MIND MATTERS

Each Mind Matters Hosts Suicide Prevention Webinar for Mental Health Workers

CAMFT’s Executive Director, Nabil El-Ghoroury, PhD, CAE, will take part in this important event on September 24, 2020.

This year, in support of National Recovery Month, National Suicide Prevention Awareness Week (September 6th – 11th) and World Suicide Prevention day (September 10th), all held in September, we are encouraging a special focus on the intersection between alcohol and drug use and suicide prevention. The observances are closely related as research has consistently shown a strong co-morbidity and substantial overlap between risk and protective factors. Let us use this time to join together to spark more conversations and end the silence about mental health and suicide.

Join Us September 24th, 2020 12PM – 1PM Suicide Prevention and Substance Use: Shared Strategies for Prevention and Intervention This free webinar, intended for therapists, clinicians and counselors, will explore the co-morbidity and overlap among risk and protective factors for substance use and suicide.
