Our Mission
The Statewide Suicide Prevention Council advises the governor and legislature on issues relating to suicide. In collaboration with communities, faith-based organizations, and public-private entities, the Council works to improve the health and wellness of Alaskans by reducing suicide and its effect on individuals and communities.
ASIST Training Schedule
- ASIST or Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training is designed to help all caregivers become more willing, ready and able to help persons at risk. Suicide can be prevented with the help of prepared caregivers. ASIST is being offered periodically or as arranged by trainers and staff of the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium (ANTHC).
