This is from their site:
Being proactive with suicide prevention is critical. This training provides Horizon Academy staff with important information and techniques to accomplish the following:
Recognize behavioral patterns and other warning signs that indicate that a young person may be at risk for suicide.
Actively intervene, usually by talking to a young person in ways that explore the level of risk without increasing it.
Ensure that young people at risk access the services necessary to reduce that risk.
