The Program
Join us as we spend an evening re-examining our relationship to suicidality and how we support those experiencing it.
Guest presenters Matt Ball and Rory Ritchie will present on the Suicide Narratives approach developed at the Humane Clinic – an alternative to pathologizing and risk-oriented models of responding.
This presentation will be followed by a panel discussion exploring the themes raised and the broader implications for the way we approach supporting people through distress and crisis – both professionally and personally.
Learning Outcomes:
- Understand a social justice and narrative based conceptualisation of suicide.
- Develop awareness of lived experience knowledge in developing an understanding of suicide.
- Learn from the shared knowledge from Lived Experience, Clinical, Academic and policy perspectives in the panel discussion.
