About Course
Suicide impacts families, schools, workplaces and whole communities. Over half of the American population personally knows someone who has died by suicide. Dr. Julie Cerel will describe her important evidence-based conceptualization that can help you think about the impact of each suicide along a continuum of exposure. She will also describe research related to effects of suicide in the workplace. She will discuss its impact on different professionals such as members of the military, first responders, mental health clinicians and crisis workers.Suicide impacts families, schools, workplaces and whole communities.
