This introductory course is designed for anyone who works with, or may encounter, justice-involved individuals, providing essential tools to recognize and respond to suicide risk. Using the Sequential Intercept Model (SIM) as a framework, the course focuses on identifying risk factors, recognizing key warning signs, and applying crisis management strategies at critical intercept points. While relevant across various justice settings, this training places a stronger emphasis on suicide risk within jails, where individuals often experience heightened vulnerability.

Victims of crime represent a significant and often overlooked portion of the community. Their encounters with law enforcement can have lasting effects—either reinforcing a sense of safety and trust or deepening the trauma they’ve experienced.

While most officers receive training in crisis response and de-escalation, these approaches often focus on managing behavior rather than addressing the emotional and psychological needs of victims. This course helps strengthen connections by focusing on better communication, fostering trust, and reducing the risk of re-victimization. It's designed to support and empower everyone involved.

You will gain the knowledge, awareness, and practical tools needed to respond to victims with empathy, professionalism, and effectiveness—ultimately improving outcomes for both individuals and the broader community.
