Talk Saves Lives: Suicide Prevention in the Workplace

September 9, 2026 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM (EDT)

Description

September is Suicide Prevention Month, creating an important opportunity for HR leaders to consider how workplaces can support suicide prevention and help employees in distress. Drawing from the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention’s flagship Talk Saves Lives program, this webinar will introduce key risk factors, protective factors, and warning signs while exploring practical ways to respond when someone may need support. Participants will also consider how HR, managers, and employee resource groups can help foster supportive workplace cultures and connect employees with appropriate resources. The program will highlight highlight resources designed for the general workforce as well as programming tailored to populations and industries disproportionately impacted by suicide. 

By the end of the program, participants will be able to: 

  • Recognize common suicide risk factors, protective factors, and warning signs that may surface in the workplace.
  • Identify some appropriate ways to begin a conversation and connect an employee with support and crisis resources. 
  • Explore how HR and managers can contribute to a workplace culture that supports mental health and suicide prevention. 
  • Determine which AFSP programs and resources best fit the needs of their employees, workplace, or community.
  • Recognize populations and industries at increased risk for suicide and understand AFSP resources tailored to their unique needs.
  • Connect specialized suicide prevention resources with employee resource groups and the communities they serve.
