This coordinated and comprehensive approach to suicide prevention at the national, state, tribal, local, and territorial levels relies upon critical partnerships across the public and private sectors. People with lived experience are critical to the success of this work. The National Strategy seeks to prevent suicide risk in the first place; identify and support people with increased risk through treatment and crisis intervention; prevent reattempts; promote long-term recovery; and support survivors of suicide loss. ### Connect™ fits into each of the strategic directions, including: **Community-Based Suicide Prevention**Connect™ supports community-based suicide prevention through Zero Suicide and Connect trainings. **Treatment and Crisis Services** Connect implements a systemic approach to health care with Zero Suicide framework and contributes to key elements of the Zero Suicide framework. **Surveillance, Quality Improvement, and Research** Connect is effective among diverse populations, resulting in more significant reductions in suicidal thoughts than when compared to other treatments. **Health Equity in Suicide Prevention** Connect is effective among diverse populations. ## Information & Announcements for Connect Suicide Prevention & Postvention Trainers **On this page, Connect Trainers will find tools, materials, and key updates to support new & ongoing suicide prevention/postvention training efforts.** ## Point of Contact for Connect Trainers Susan Ward, NAMI New Hampshire’s Suicide Prevention and Postvention Manager, coordinates support for all Connect trainers.

It teaches how to identify at-risk individuals, engage in empathetic conversations, and connect them with resources. It aims to create a supportive network within the community, where people are empowered to intervene and prevent suicide. [Can prevention/intervention and postvention both be taught in a day?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-778a6cc6adbbc1b8e044) Prevention/intervention and postvention focus on different aspects of suicide and are generally taught separately. Prevention/intervention addresses identifying warning signs and intervening before an attempt, while postvention supports those after a suicide. Although postvention can act as a form of prevention by addressing the aftermath and preventing further tragedies, when these topics are introduced for the first time, they are generally taught separately. This ensures that participants can fully engage with and absorb the unique content of each training. [How is community helper (formerly “gatekeeper”) training different from training for specific disciplines?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-f8eb73b6adbbc1b8e044) The Connect training has 3 modules. Module 3 is discipline-specific (schools, social services, mental health, healthcare, community helper, first responders). The community helper training is for anyone and everyone in the community, (families, faith leaders, coaches, those working in any industry, etc.) Depending on the goals of the training, we can help you decide the best fit for your participants. [What is the difference between Connect Prevention/Intervention and Connect Postvention training?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-8dab3e66adbbc1b8e044) **Prevention/Intervention** teaches how to recognize and respond to suicidal thoughts or behaviors before an attempt. **Postvention** focuses on supporting individuals and communities after a suicide, offering grief support, reducing stigma, and helping to prevent further suicides. [Who should attend a postvention training?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-a20f9426adbbc1b8e044) People that work in colleges schools and youth-focused roles (school counselors, administrators), mental healthcare professionals, cris responders, healthcare professionals, first responders and community safety, workplace and organizational leaders, faith leaders, peer supporters, anyone in a role where others may turn to them in a crisis, people working in high-risk populations (youth, veterans, behavioral health) and teams wanting to create a coordinated response plan. [Who should attend a Connect Postvention Planning Session?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-bacfc9a6adbbc1b8e044) A **Postvention Planning Session** is for key stakeholders who have decision-making authority or responsibility in developing or managing the services or policies implemented following a suicide or sudden death. Attendance requires prior participation in Postvention training. [How long should a community or organization wait before participating in suicide prevention training after experiencing a suicide loss?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-32a22a66adbbc1b8e044) There isn’t a single fixed rule, but most postvention and prevention experts suggest being intentional and conservative with timing rather than rushing into training**.** Grief after suicide can be intense and unpredictable. It is recommended that those that experience a loss should wait several months and ensure emotional readiness before attending a training. Staff should only attend when they feel ready and supported. This timeline can look different for everyone. Attending a suicide prevention training may bring up big emotions about warning signs that may have been missed. If having a suicide prevention training, it is recommended to do so when people feel ready and not near the anniversary of the event and in a neutral location. Postvention consultation services can assist decision makers in creating and modifying postvention plans and guidance for memorials and safe communication. [How can I know if my community is ready to do postvention planning?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-446acc66adbbc1b8e044) Use one of these Community Readiness tools to determine how your community can prepare for postvention training and future work developing an effective postvention response plan. - [For Any Community](https://theconnectprogram.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Connect_Postvention_Readiness_Assessment-Community_Edition-FILLABLE.pdf) - [For AI/AN Communities](https://theconnectprogram.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Connect_Postvention_Readiness_Assessment-AIAN_Edition-FILLABLE.pdf) [What can Consultation Services be used for?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-5fc91d26adbbc1b8e044) Consultation Services can be used to strengthen suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention efforts within your school, organization, or community. We provide expert guidance related to both suicide prevention and suicide postvention on topics such as policy development, staff training, crisis response planning, community coordination, and implementing evidence-informed strategies to support safety, resilience, and healing after a suicide or traumatic loss. [Are trainings or services offered in languages other than English?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-c4738fa6adbbc1b8e044) Connect Suicide Prevention for Community Members Training and Connect Suicide Prevention for School Personnel are online, self-paced trainings that are offered in both English and Spanish. [Can you meet the cultural needs of diverse communities?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-c9b86176adbbc1b8e044) Yes. The Connect Suicide Postvention Program is specifically designed to be adaptable and culturally responsive, not a one-size-fits-all training. Scenarios and role-plays can be modified to reflect real cultural norms and experiences. NAMI NH staff works with each host organization and team to identify needs and determine how to best meet those throughout the training event. [How does NAMI NH set and incorporate travel expenses for their staff?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-5c0c1466adbbc1b8e044) Actual travel expenses for in-person events are added to the final invoice after the event, with no additional administrative fees or upcharges. NAMI NH staff are mindful of budget constraints and make every effort to keep travel costs as low as possible, and we welcome recommendations for reasonably priced lodging in your area. For planning purposes, we suggest budgeting approximately $3,000 per staff member per trip—although actual costs are typically lower, this amount has proven to be a reliable estimate. [How much do Connect Training and Consultation Services cost?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-e8c5cdc6adbbc1b8e044) For all suicide prevention and postvention trainings, costs vary depending on multiple factors including training selected, number of participants, method of delivery, location of training delivery, and number of trainers. Costs include NAMI NH staff time and all materials. Please reach out for a quote. [Should staff who have recently experienced a suicide loss attend a suicide prevention or postvention training?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-3c1bdf36adbbc1b8e044) A **Postvention Planning Session** is for key stakeholders who have decision-making authority or responsibility in developing or managing the services or policies implemented following a suicide or sudden death. Attendance requires prior participation in Postvention training. [Can the Connect Team assist if we have questions after training?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-a43a5a46adbbc1b8e044) Yes, the Connect Team is available to answer your questions at any time. [What is the contracting, invoicing, and payment process?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-116a6746adbbc1b8e044) After you make a final decision about which training service will meet your community’s needs, a Training Agreement will be created and sent to you for review and approval. After we receive the signed Agreement, your training event date will be reserved and confirmed. After the training event is completed, you will be issued an invoice within 1-2 weeks. Invoices can be paid in a variety of ways. The NAMI NH Business Office is available to assist with any needs you may have related to invoicing or payments. [How much notice is required to book a training date?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-3cdf0746adbbc1b8e044) We require a 6–8-weeks after the signed Training Agreement is received to be able to plan logistics, prepare materials, and if required, ship materials to the training location. [How many people can attend a Connect training?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-d6dcab76adbbc1b8e044) We typically recommend no more than 35 participants and can discuss your training needs. [Can Continuing Education (CE) credits be offered for Connect trainings?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-b1f2de66adbbc1b8e044) CEs can be offered for Connect trainings that are two hours or more. If you are planning a multi-day Connect Train-the-Trainer or a Connect Training & Planning Session, the CEs will only be issued for the training day. For in-person and live, virtual Connect trainings, CEs are from NASW New Hampshire which are transferrable to most states. If your audience requires CEs from a different institution or field, please reach out. Depending on the time available, we may be able to apply for additional approvals. [Can we invite people from outside our organization to attend a training?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-5f8efaa6adbbc1b8e044) Depending on the goals of the training and type of training you are planning, yes, the Connect Program is more than just a training. It is a multi-system approach that helps build a **coordinated system** across schools, healthcare providers, first responders, workplaces and faith and community organizations. The experience is more comprehensive, productive, and meaningful when community partners are also involved. ## Training for Students [How many students can be trained in the Youth Leader program?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-1fa31746adbbc1b9ec22) The program accommodates up to 30 students and 15 adults, who will co-lead future trainings.

Let us know your needs, and we’ll work with you to meet them. [What happens when a Youth Leader student graduates?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-a20f9426adbbc1b9ec22) Graduates cannot use the curriculum or materials after graduating. It is recommended that each school program train a cohort of new students within their school each year to replace graduating Youth Leaders and ensure sustainability for the program. [What if a Youth Leader adult co-leader leaves?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-a120c346adbbc1b9ec22) If an adult co-leader leaves, they are no longer authorized to use the curriculum or materials outside the district where they were trained.

[What if a student who recently lost someone to suicide wants to participate?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-9e38cfc6adbbc1b9ec22) Students who’ve recently lost someone to suicide may find suicide prevention training difficult. We ask that you speak with the NAMI NH Connect Trainer assigned to your event to assess their readiness and appropriateness for the training. ## Training for Individuals & Small Groups [Why can't individuals sign up for any Connect training?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-1fa31746adbbc1ba0d10) Connect offers a variety of in-person and online training programs for a variety of audiences. Types of training include: - **Suicide Prevention/Intervention**: A Nationally Designated Best Practice Program, Connect Suicide Prevention/Intervention training utilizes a unique, community-based, public health approach to increase the competence of participants in recognizing and responding to individuals who are suicidal or at risk for suicide. Connect helps participants examine suicide in the context of the individual, family, community, and society. - **Suicide Postvention:** A Nationally Designated Best Practice Program, this training focuses on promoting healing and reducing risk after a suicide. It is geared toward professionals who are involved in responding to a suicide death, such as school counselors, faith leaders, law enforcement, and mental health/substance abuse providers. It is not appropriate for general community members who do not have a direct role in postvention responses. Connect Postvention Training equips key stakeholders in a community with the knowledge and skills to navigate grief and the complex legal and ethical challenges after a suicide. The training can be combined with a Postvention Response Planning Session which is a planning tool to help participants develop protocols for an integrated response system. - **Facilitated Planning Session**: A full day of facilitated strategic planning can be added to your training package. A Suicide Prevention Planning Session will guide participants to develop suicide prevention protocols, practices, or initiatives. The Suicide Postvention Response Planning Session is a planning tool to help participants develop protocols for an integrated response system. Up to 25 key stakeholders with responsibility for suicide prevention or postvention response in your community are invited to participate in the session. - **Train-the-Trainer:** Connect Train-the-Trainer is available in both suicide prevention and postvention for organizations seeking a sustainable way to deliver quality training to employees or community members. This model builds capacity and sustainability for an organization, community, or state to provide ongoing training at no cost in suicide prevention or postvention for a period of two years before reauthorization is required. Using a unique public health and socio-ecological model, Connect training enhances the ability of professionals to provide effective, coordinated, and appropriate responses to suicide across the lifespan and across systems. - **Specialized workshops on a topic related to suicide prevention:** To help organizations and school districts meet the needs of suicide prevention requirements or initiatives, Connect team members can provide 2-3-hour workshops in-person in New Hampshire or virtually for any community on topics related to suicide prevention and postvention. If this is of interest to you, let’s talk about what we can do and what might meet your needs. - **Consultation Services:** NAMI New Hampshire has been a national leader in both the fields of suicide prevention and postvention for many years and we are happy to share our experience with you in order to support your community’s efforts. Consultation services can include information about best-practices, assistance with planning and problem-solving, recommendations for implementation, and more. You can select the consultant of your choice from our team. [Should I participate in suicide prevention or postvention training if I’ve recently lost someone to suicide?](https://theconnectprogram.org/resources/#collapse-778a6cc6adbbc1ba0d10) Postvention is an organized, immediate, short-term, and long-term response in the aftermath of a suicide to promote healing and mitigate the negative effects of exposure to suicide. The U.S. national guidelines developed by the Survivors of Suicide Loss Task Force indicates that an effective postvention response strives to facilitate the healing of individuals from the grief and distress of suicide loss, mitigate other negative effects of exposure to suicide, and prevent suicide among people who are at high risk after exposure to suicide. The Suicide Prevention Resource Center recommends all settings incorporate postvention as a component of a comprehensive approach to suicide prevention. Key principles for creating a comprehensive postvention effort include: - Planning ahead to address individual and community needs - Providing immediate and long-term support - Tailoring responses and services to the unique needs of [suicide loss survivors](https://sprc.org/populations/survivors-of-suicide-loss/) Involving survivors of suicide loss in planning and implementing postvention efforts Connect offers postvention trainings and services to educate key stakeholders in your community about effective postvention response and planning and guide them to develop and implement effective strategies, practices, and protocols that will promote healing.
