Demonstration
Satisfying AB2246 Suicide Prevention Mandate with Turnkey PD Solution December 2016
• I enjoyed being able to practice speaking to the three students and the ability to
undo and start the conversation over. The ability to practice is so important.
• The scenarios were very realistic and the subject covered new ground for me and
also confirmed my current knowledge. I also thought the handout was great to have.
I printed it out and will keep it nearby.
• The students selected were chosen well. They closely match students I have to deal
with on a routine basis.
• I thought the course was effective and encourages me to think about how to better
navigate conversations with students who are having psychological distress. The
links seem like a good way to bridge the course with actually applying it and having
access to resources.

User Comments – Post-training survey
• Share this with everyone who has anything to do with children.
• As a school counselor, it is a regular occurrence for me to talk to students about
their psychological distress. However, I feel this training helped the teachers
understand how to approach students they had concerns about and then refer them
to me for further help.
• I have had more confidence in having discussions with students about their stress.
• I have approached other teachers at our school about students I have been
concerned about. We have come together as a group to support more students.
User Comments – 3-month follow-up survey
