Thank you to everyone who joined us for our LivingWorks safeTALK training last week at SERCC!

Led by our Clinical Director, Jaime Swift, this 4-hour training helped community members and social work students from Rochester Community and Technical College - RCTC learn how to recognize when someone may be thinking about suicide and how to connect them with support.

Building a safer, more caring community starts with conversations like these. We’re grateful to learn together.

If you are interested in bringing safeTALK training to your community, contact us at scc-communications@nexusfamilyhealing.org
