Candidate feedback from a Suicide Lite course

5 Star

The course gave me a better overall understanding of suicide than I had before. It made me think deeper about how to understand the issues surrounding why people have thoughts of dying. The more we can talk about suicide and the more we understand, the more we can help people in their time of crisis. The course has helped me realise that in our society there is still stigma surrounding suicide. I feel more confident in talking to someone who is experiencing thoughts of suicide now.
