Suicide Prevention Training for UW-Madison Students is a multi-part, online program that builds capacity in UW-Madison students to intervene, prevent suicide, and support mental health in their peers. This training does not offer immediate support to students in distress. Instead, it prepares students to be better able to support their peers in the future. All UW-Madison students can access this online training by joining the Canvas course.
Live (in-person or virtual) prevention trainings for groups of students are available by request. The online training (Suicide Prevention Training for UW-Madison Students) serves as a prerequisite for customized, more advanced prevention training.
