Event Details

Event Description

This in-person Connect Postvention training is offered through a partnership between School Safety and Prevention at Northwest Regional Education Service District and Tillamook School District.

Connect Postvention Training helps service providers and school officials respond in a coordinated and comprehensive way in the aftermath of a suicide or any sudden death. Recommended participants include school and district administrators, law enforcement, EMS, mental health providers, school counselors, flight team/crisis response leads, members of the Tillamook County Suicide Prevention Coalition, clergy, and others who would like to be involved in planning postvention response to a suicide death in the county.

Connect Postvention Training covers:

Best practices on how to coordinate a comprehensive and safe response to a suicide
Strategies for reducing the risk of contagion
Review of the complexity of suicide-related grief, especially for different age groups
Recommendations for funerals and memorial activities
Best practices for safe messaging about suicide and responding to the media

Those who attend this training and live or work in Tillamook County will be invited to join a larger conversation and collaborative planning session on county postvention efforts in February.
