Connecticut National Guardsmen attend Suicide Prevention Workshop
Connecticut National Guard Risk Reduction Coordinator Jennifer Visone speaks to a member of an Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training, or ASIST, class during a group discussion inside the Maj. Gen. Maurice Rose Armed Forces Reserve Center, Middletown, Connecticut, Sept. 7, 2023. During the course, participants learned the Pathway for Assisting Life, or PAL, model of suicide intervention. This model prepares those who intervene by teaching them how to identify suicide warning signs, how to connect with an at-risk person and how to get that person the care they need to ultimately reject suicide.
