    85th Support Command

    Training participants role-play an intervention with one person as the caregiver, and the other as someone thinking about suicide, during the 85th Support Command’s Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training workshop, Sep. 27-28, 2018. The role-play was conducted in front of their peers so that the class could elaborate on how the interaction went. The workshop certifies Soldiers and staff members in skills that help prevent the immediate risk of suicide. The command’s suicide prevention program manager, Carmella Navarro, along with other SPPMs across the country, coordinated the workshop for local community partners that can support people who struggle with suicidal ideations, to include Army Reserve Soldiers living within those communities. Community partners consisted of counselors, first responders, therapists and local citizens. According to Navarro, the resources that are available to an active component Soldier, on their installation, are not necessarily the same for a reserve component Soldier because of the broad and sometimes remote locations that Army Reserve Soldiers are located across the country.
