Substance misuse is the second most frequent risk factor for suicide.

The SP/SUD course is about how to recognize the warning signs of SUD and suicide, the intersection of SUD and suicide, and how stigma can affect help seekers and help givers. It is a one-hour virtual training designed for mental health professionals, health care providers, and social service professionals.

The SP/SUD curriculum covers the facts, warning signs, protective factors, and stigma associated with SUD and suicide, as well as proactive care strategies to consider. Trainings are open to anyone and will be delivered virtually, via Zoom.
