2026 No-Cost Suicide Prevention Training for South Carolina

The South Carolina Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities, in partnership with SafeSide Prevention, is offering no-cost suicide prevention training for clinicians and youth-serving professionals across the state. Our workshops for 2026 are full, but you can sign up to be the first to know when the 2027 dates are released!

Your SafeSide CARE workshop will step through the SafeSide Framework for Suicide Prevention, a map of evidence-based and best practices in suicide prevention that covers the four pillars of Connect, Assess, Respond and Extend. This short video explains "foreseeable changes", a key element of the Framework.
