Community Outreach and Postvention

The Baton Rouge Crisis Intervention Center offers the community many different ways to learn more about suicide.

Speakers

The Center has speakers available to talk to your group. The speaker will gear the talk to your individual needs, but some past topics include:
  • Recognizing the signs of suicide
  • Dealing with the loss of a loved one to suicide
  • General Bereavement
  • Active Listening
  • Crisis Intervention

Postvention

Has your school, workplace or organization been affected by the suicide of a member or employee?
A trained mental health professional will come to your organization after a suicide loss and listen to the feelings and help process them. We will also offer coping mechanisms for individuals and for the group.

Training

The Crisis Center offers a variety of training, both for professionals and for community members concerned about preventing, intervening, and postvening in a suicide loss.
