Description

OSPI is pleased to present online training on the Lifelines Comprehensive Trilogy®, led by national experts, Underwood & Associates. Each of the three sections of the trilogy will be offered on two separate dates. Register for each date separately.

Target audience for Lifelines Postvention: Washington grade K–12 administrators, crisis teams, key school stakeholders and community members who support the school in the event of a trauma/crisis.

Overview: Lifelines Postvention is a comprehensive whole school best practices program specifically designed for primary and secondary school communities. This unique program educates everyone in the school community about how to successfully address and respond not only to suicide, but to any type of traumatic death that profoundly affects the school population. With in-dept references and detailed plans, this training outlines a response strategy that reflects the challenges schools face in dealing with a death.

Schools that send at least one staff member to each portion (prevention, intervention, and postvention) of the Lifelines Trilogy and commit to implementing the program will receive access to the full online Lifelines Comprehensive Trilogy® curriculum on-demand for three years (while supplies last). OSPI is offering this important training opportunity through Washington’s Student Support and Academic Enrichment (Title IV, Part A) program.
