safeTALK

Central offerings of safeTALK workshops are open to all U of T St. George students at no cost.

Coordinators, staff and faculty can request a safeTALK workshop for U of T St. George student leaders/groups, staff and faculty members or can attend a central offering for staff/faculty groups. Learn more about fees and contact information in the Program Registration section below.

Through presentations, audiovisuals, small group discussion and scenario practice, you will learn a 4-step TALK model and practical steps to help activate a suicide alert that connects people having thoughts of suicide with more specialized intervention care and relevant resources.

safeTALK is facilitated by skilled, supportive trainers along with community resource staff who are available and present for participant safety and comfort.

All participants will receive a learning booklet, resources and a Certificate of Completion.
