Why does this training matter?
Suicide is the 12th leading cause of death in the United States, and the 2nd leading cause of death among young adults. National surveys report that 8-10% of college students contemplate suicide each year. At newbb电子平台, that would translate to approximately 2,100 students. 然而,, many college students who die by suicide are unknown to campus mental health professionals and the vast majority of students who think about suicide do not seek out professional resources.
考虑到这一点, it is also important to consider that 67% of young adults first tell a friend they are feeling suicidal before telling anyone else. 谁在乎newbb电子平台 is designed to help participants feel better equipped to handle these difficult situations and make appropriate referrals to mental health resources. 是否一个学生, 管理员, 机密的员工, 或者教职员工, participants can make a difference in someone’s life by becoming a Bobcat Who Cares.

The training is completed in groups of 20 to 25 participants and requires a three-hour commitment. Currently, the training is offered as a three-hour in-person training, or in a hybrid format. 混合格式, participants first complete several modules independently on BlackBoard, 在线学习平台, 了解有关自杀的事实, 自杀的警告标志, skills for communicating with those in crisis, and referral options on campus and in the community. This portion of the training is approximately 1.5个小时. 接下来，参与者加入一个1.5小时的现场演出, during which they will engage in exercises that will put into practice the skills learned in the BlackBoard training. The live session can be completed virtually via Microsoft Teams, or in person.
