            This program is designed to equip you with the essential skills and knowledge needed to address two critical issues: domestic violence and suicide.

You will gain the tools to respond effectively, provide immediate support, and connect individuals to the resources they need for safety and healing. By the end of this specialization, you will have a deep understanding of the dynamics of abuse and suicide, as well as practical, hands-on techniques for intervening in crisis situations, promoting prevention, and supporting those at risk.
