Yesterday, Phyllis Harvey presented a plaque to New Hope Presbyterian Church in appreciation for their hosting five Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST) workshops in 2010. The Rev. Russ Kane accepted the plaque on behalf of New Hope and asked Phyllis to share some information about the ASIST with the congregation.
Both Phyllis and Russ are members of the Douglas County Suicide Prevention Alliance.
ASIST is a two-day work shop that prepares participants to intervene with people who are having thoughts of suicide. Future workshops are scheduled for September 29-30 and October 4-5, 2010; and February 7-8, and June 9-10, 2011.
