FailSafe for Life

What do you do when a client is experiencing a su***de emergency?

Knowing how to respond can make all the difference.
Join FailSafe for Life virtually next week for Helping Your Client Through a Su***de Emergency, a two-part training focused on recognizing su***de risk, responding with confidence, and connecting clients to appropriate support.

💻 VIRTUAL TRAINING
📅 Wednesday, September 16 | 1–4 PM
📅 Thursday, September 17 | 9 AM–12 PM

Topics include su***de risk and protective factors, warning signs, intervention, risk assessment, safety planning, lethal means restriction, treatment options, and local and national resources.

📌 Please note: Participation in the entirety of both 3-hour sessions is required for certification. All participants must have their own computer with a camera, keep their camera on and be in view for the duration of the training, and actively participate.

Su***de prevention doesn't always look like knowing exactly what to say or having all the answers.

Sometimes it looks like sending the text.
Bringing the coffee.
Taking the walk.
Asking again.
Making the call.
Inviting someone along.
Checking in a few days later because you remembered.

The small moments of connection matter. And the more we learn how to recognize when someone may be struggling, have conversations about su***de, and connect people to support, the more equipped we are to show up when it matters.

Keep checking in. Keep learning. Keep showing up. 💚

If you or someone you know needs support, call or text 988.

September is National Su***de Prevention Month, and one of the simplest ways we can show up for the people in our lives is to check in.

You don’t need the perfect words or a big reason to reach out. A simple “How are you doing?” can open the door to a conversation someone may need.

So this month, think of someone you haven’t checked in with lately. Send the text. Make the call. Grab coffee. Let them know you’re there.

You never know what a little connection can mean to someone. 💚

We’re so grateful for the firefighters at Spokane County Fire District #4 in Deer Park and the work they’re doing to keep our community safe. ❤️

We recently donated lens-cleaning cloths to the station. It’s a small thing, but when our local firefighters are working long hours, responding to fires, and doing everything they can to protect our community, we want to help however we can. We wish we could do more, but we’re grateful for the opportunity to show our support in any way we can.

Thank you to everyone at Station 41 for all that you do, especially during these difficult fires. We appreciate you and are grateful to have you looking out for our community. 🚒❤️

We are so incredibly grateful to The Smelly Open for choosing FailSafe for Life as this year’s beneficiary. 💚⛳️

Thank you to everyone who played, volunteered, sponsored, donated, and helped make this tournament possible. Your generosity allows us to continue our work of bringing hope, connection, and su***de prevention resources to our community.

We are especially grateful for the heart behind the Smelly Open and the desire to keep Mark’s memory from being forgotten. What began in his honor continues to make a difference by supporting organizations working to prevent su***de and support those who have been impacted by it.

Thank you for allowing FailSafe for Life to be part of that mission. We are honored by your support and grateful for the opportunity to turn your generosity into continued hope for our community. 💚
