SUICIDE PREVENTION
EDUCATION

KEYS 365 provides FREE, interactive, suicide prevention training in a supportive, community-building group format. With a focus on early intervention, each class is thoughtfully customized to introduce life-saving prevention skills and encourage meaningful connection.

 

Training is available in-person, virtually, or in a hybrid format, offering flexible access for every community.

 

Participants gain practical tools to:

  • Recognize warning signs and risk factors

  • Understand recommended suicide-prevention language

  • Practice effective listening and open, compassionate dialogue

  • Foster hope and resilience through simple, everyday actions

SELF-CARE 
& RESILIENCE

KEYS 365 provides simple, evidence-based self-care techniques designed for each participating group. Examples include gentle yoga, short meditation or breathing exercises, posture and stretching, self-massage, hydration reminders, relaxation tools, and positive self-talk.

These practices may be offered as a stand-alone class or combined with a full KEYS 365 training, equipping helpers with practical tools to reduce stress and strengthen overall wellbeing.

Self-care builds resilience.
When we take care of ourselves, we’re better able to support others and nurture emotionally healthy communities.

FOLLOW-UP
SUPPORT 
& RESOURCES

KEYS 365 provides follow-up support to help communities apply the tools and techniques introduced during training. In addition, our website includes links to trusted starting-point resources that encourage comprehensive assessment by trained professionals, continued learning, and ongoing access to help.

Many individuals delay—or never seek—support because they’re unsure what to expect when reaching out. Offering to accompany someone or stay with them while they make that first connection can be deeply reassuring. Early connection is critical.

To simplify that first step, KEYS 365 offers a collection of trusted, well-established resources—a supportive beginning for those taking their first steps on a journey of hope and healing.

ENGAGEMENT
& PREVENTION

KEYS 365 provides free suicide-prevention awareness materials designed to build awareness, foster help-seeking cultures, reduce stigma, spark meaningful conversations, and share life-saving resources. 

Printable participation certificates and follow up sessions are available upon request.

Collaboration opportunities are varied; please use our contact form to explore:

  • Individual and group volunteer engagement

  • Community partnerships and 

  • Resource fairs and events

  • Speaker requests

  • Corporate sponsorships and support

THERE IS HOPE FOR EVERYONE.
