The ASIST workshops are built on Process, Relationships, and Practice. Focus is on the needs of the person with thoughts of suicide not a one size fits all response. The workshops are backed by research and modified to reflect best practice. We use a person centered approach. ASIST is now internationally acclaimed by the World Health Organization.
