Since 2012, more than 26,000 caring individuals from all walks of life have taken the Intervene Challenge to gain the skills that save lives. The core curriculum of the Intervene Challenge is the book, Listen Learn Lead, written by Chaplain Lou Koon. Lou will be sharing the core values he has developed in conducting more than 2,000 successful suicide interventions in both military and civilian communities. The key learning objectives and simulation exercises will equip participants to be ready, willing, and able to assist individuals in crisis.
The need has never been greater. In 2022 the suicide rate for Fayette County was 100% higher than the 10 year average. The reduction of suicide will take the work of many working as one. Together we are a beacon of hope guiding others to safe harbor!
This training is provided without cost to the community through the generous support of our sustaining community partners. Dogwood Church and Clothes Less Traveled are valued friends and a tremendous encouragement as we continue to build a network of care that is saving lives.
THANK YOU TO OUR TREMENDOUS PARTNERS!
