Lethal Means Safety Training will review:

When someone attempts or dies by suicide many people want to understand the WHY. Come and learn the importance of HOW the information can help prevent further suicides.

What: Lethal means are objects (e.g., medications, firearms, sharp instruments) that can be used to inflict self-directed violence. Lethal Means Safety (LMS) is an intentional, voluntary practice to reduce one’s suicide risk by limiting access to those lethal means.

Why: Creating space and time between an object a person is thinking about using to die by suicide can prevent suicide.

Presenter: Laura Stumvoll, BSN MS, is the Community Engagement and Partnerships Coordinator from the St. Cloud VA. Her role is to provide technical assistance to community led suicide prevention coalitions and education on the subject.
