About this event

When someone you care about is struggling, knowing what to say and what to do can feel overwhelming. You don’t need to have all the answers, but having the right tools can help you respond with greater confidence and compassion.

During this free, one-hour workshop, the Care to Change team will help you better understand the unique factors that can contribute to suicide risk within the LGBTQ community, recognize signs that someone may be struggling, and learn practical ways to respond and connect them with help.

This workshop is for parents, friends, teachers, pastors, coaches, coworkers, community leaders, and anyone who wants to be better prepared to support the people in their life.

Come because someone in your life may one day need you to know what to do.
