Effective Interventions for Self-Injury and Suicide in Youth – Webinar

Tuesday, September 29, 2020 9:30 a.m. EDT

Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI; e.g., self-cutting, self-burning) occurs in up to 20% of adolescents and represents a risk factor for suicidal behavior, although, many who engage in NSSI are not suicidal. This workshop will engage participants in learning about best practices for intervening with and monitoring NSSI and suicide risk in youth. Participants will leave the workshop with practical tools they can use in their work with youth the very next day.
