ASIST is a 2 day 2 trainer intervention for everyone interested in reducing suicide in their community.
ASIST has five learning sections:

Preparing: sets the tone, norms, and expectations of the learning experience.
Connecting: sensitizes participants to their own attitudes towards suicide. Creates an understanding of the impact which attitudes have on the intervention process.
Understanding: overviews the intervention needs of a person at risk. It focuses on providing participants with the knowledge and skills to recognize risk and develop safeplans to reduce the risk of suicide.
Assisting: presents a model for effective suicide intervention. Participants develop their skills through observation and supervised simulation experiences in large and small groups.
Networking: generates information about resources in the local community. Promotes a commitment by participants to transform local resources into helping networks.
