Suicide is a topic that we aren't comfortable talking about until we have to. It is a reality that does not discriminate; it doesn't care who you are or what you do, it can affect anyone. Presented by an interpreter sibling suicide loss survivor, this workshop will be an open honest conversation about what interpreters need to know about suicide: the facts, statistics, appropriate language (ASL & English), warning signs, risk factors, terminology, myths, and prevention. We will also talk about different kinds of pain, where conversations around suicide show up in our work, and strategies for safely and effectively working with suicide loss and attempt survivors.
