Suicide Awareness Health Education and Training Program

The Suicide Awareness Health Education and Training (S.A.H.E.T) Program is designed to inform and educate the campus community about depression and to prevent suicide.  Its goal is to help faculty, staff, and teaching assistants understand how to help students who may be suffering; how to recognize signs of depression and suicidal inclinations, what to say to a student who may be depressed and/or suicidal, and identify resources.  The presentation includes a video and a discussion facilitated by a mental health professional.  Presentations are typically 1 hour and can be scheduled by contacting Carrie Martin at 301-314-8112 or cmartin@health.umd.edu.
