First Responders and Suicide Response: Better Understanding, Better Outcomes Webinar

June 10, 2021

Law enforcement, firefighters, and paramedics are often the first on the scene after a suicide crisis. How they respond to people who are experiencing suicidal intensity or the shock of a suicide death of a loved one matters greatly. Many progressive departments are learning about the importance of integrating the voices of people who have lived through these hardships in the training first responders receive.

In addition, first responders are beginning to share their own lived experiences with psychological hardship and suicide so they can better help each other. In this webinar, we will have a conversation with two police officers, a firefighter, and a paramedic on their lessons learned on how best to respond to mental health emergencies -- in the community and in their own departments.
