Cobb Collaborative Events: Week of February 14, 2022
Tuesday, February 15
- 1:00-2:30PM: Community Resiliency Model (CRM)®– The primary focus of the Community Resiliency Model (CRM)® is to re-set the natural balance of the nervous system. CRM’s goal is to help to create “trauma-informed” and “resiliency-focused” communities that share a common understanding of the impact of trauma and chronic stress on the nervous system and how resiliency can be restored or increased using this skills-based approach.

February 17-18: Two Day Training Event
- 9:00AM – 5:00PM Both Days: Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST)
ASIST is a two-day, two-trainer, workshop designed for members of all caregiving groups. Family, friends, and other community members may be the first to talk with a person at risk, but have little or no training. ASIST can also provide those in formal helping roles with professional development to ensure that they are prepared to provide suicide first aid help as part of the care they provide.
During this workshop, participants will learn how to prevent suicide by recognizing signs, providing a skilled intervention, and developing a safety plan to keep someone alive. You must attend both days in order to complete the training. Click here for registration.
