What is CALM?
What is CALM?
Learn how to understand, respond to and prevent suicide. An evidence based, Australian training program that empowers you to have a ‘CALM conversation’ about suicide, to reduce stigma, promote help seeking and save lives.
CALM empowers participants to recognise and respond to suicide risk, and to support someone through stages of positive intervention, the development of a safety plan, and linking to other services for further help. We deliver the training in a supportive, respectful and inclusive environment, accepting each individual’s differences, with consideration and adaptation for their culturally diverse needs.
CALM helps participants to:
Recognise the five signs of suicide
Make a positive connection
Hold the space and deeply listen
Develop a plan for strength and safety
What you will learn
Factors that contribute to suicide
How to recognise signs that someone may be thinking suicide
How and when to ask about suicide
How to listen to a person’s worries and stressors.
How to develop a plan to help the person stay strong and safe.
What you will receive

A 24-page Workbook including knowledge and skills to guide you through all stages of the conversation, including a list of National Helplines and Websites in Australia.
