Impact of Suicide on Youth and Families: The Ones We Miss
Registration: 8:30 a.m.
DESCRIPTION : Why do the numbers in Wisconsin continue to either rise, or stay the same, when most of the country is seeing a decline in child/adolescent suicide? Who are we missing? The “One's We Miss” are most often children in out of home car and youth who are bullied. We certainly have a basic understanding of suicide, and what to do about it, but yet it continues to be a challenge. This training will address these questions and also provide you with ideas for case planning when working with families where suicidal behaviors and ideations continue to be challenging. This 6 hour training will include lecture, handouts, small group discussions and development of a system of care and crisis plan as part of case planning.
TARGET AUDIENCE: This training is appropriate for Child Welfare and Juvenile Justice social work professionals and supervisors who want to increase their knowledge about the impact of suicide on children and adolescents.
