When Students Feel Distraught, Hopeless, or Suicidal

There are many supportive NYFA staff members in place to assist not only students, but also faculty. CETL partners with these community members to deliver impactful programming and resources on topics related to their offices. In the following webinar, Dr. Stanley Tam (LA & Miami Director of Counseling Services) and Caitlin Westfall, LMSW (LA Counseling Services Therapist) explore the following topics and much more:

• Strengthen prevention, intervention, and postvention

• Academic & physical indicators 

• What happens after a crisis occurs

For more information on this topic, please consult the Suicide Prevention Resource Center in addition to the Counseling Services professionals on your campus.
