Developing a Community Postvention Team: Essential Considerations for Planning and Preparation
February 11, 2019 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm
This interactive workshop will provide participants guidance and direction on the crucial elements to consider for developing and sustaining a community postvention response team(s). Key learning and topics addressed during the workshop include;
- Process for developing a team
- Postvention/trauma response team elements
- Essential knowledge skills and characteristics of trauma response personnel
- Structure, activation and training considerations
- Table top exercise
- SWOT analysis to support the development or growth of a coordinated response
- Examples from other communities
Who should attend? To maximize efforts, it will be ideal to have representatives from the entire community and who are likely to respond to a suicide at some point. We are asking that prior to registering that you consider you/your agency, school or departments’ willingness and ability to participate in and commit to additional planning for postvention teams.
