The Crisis Intervention Training workshop will address how to use evidence-based strategies for assessing lethality and how to initiate collaborative conversations to engage at-risk individuals in safety planning and linkage to care. Building community resources and creating support networks for staff and community members will also be addressed. In addition to learning the theory and skills for how to apply evidence-based crisis-assessment and engagement strategies in high-risk situations, participants will also practice using the skills to address various crisis issues currently encountered in behavioral health settings including:  

1. Mental health and addiction crisis on the streets, 

2. Crisis among adolescents struggling with self-harm behaviorsdepression and anxiety;

3. Individual distress following environmental disasters, such as forest fires, flooding, and landslides.


Target Audience: Social Workers, Clinicians, Case Managers, Counselors, and Team Leaders.

Do you feel overwhelmed by the sheer number of crises experienced in your community and those seeking services from you? 

Do you wish for effective ways to assess for crises, engage your clients, and put a plan of action in place? 


Please join us to learn more about using strategies that are effective in addressing crises in our communities.
