Assessing suicide & self-harm risk in justice system clients
At the completion of this half-day training, participants should be able to identify risk factors specific to justice-involved populations, understand how justice involvement may contribute to risk, and consider the complexities of managing suicide and self-harm risk in this population. This training will provide participants the opportunity to practice their skills through group activities and reviewing case studies. This training was designed for clinicians who work in general or mental health services or service providers who work with justice-involved clients.
Participants should have an understanding of how to assess suicide and self-harm risk prior to attending.
This training will be facilitated by Dr Melanie Simmons, a Clinical and Forensic Psychologist, an adjunct researcher with the Centre for Forensic Behavioural Science and the Chief Psychology Officer for the Department of Justice and Community Safety.
