About The Event

Based on the book, Emotionally Naked: A Teacher’s Guide to Preventing Suicide and Recognizing Students at Risk, this presentation will empower parents and educators to reduce this threat to life. Attendees will learn the cryptic and often veiled ways youth cry for help, how to respond and what to do. 

Rogers will offer suggestions and resources to help people recognize what's normal teen angst versus what might be a warning sign as well as tips to help teens develop coping skills during and after the pandemic. The conversation will include topics on substance misuse, mental health, suicide prevention in teens/young adults including insight into those times when young people are more vulnerable.

Learning outcomes: 

• Real life signs of suicide in youth and what to say/do

• Lesser-known periods when adolescents are more vulnerable 

• How to build relationships that help adolescents develop resilience

Audience: Parents, educators, youth leaders, educational leaders, policy makers, advocates, community members.
