Holding on to Hope: Embracing Ethics and Trauma-Informed Care in Suicide Prevention
March 27, 2026 | 12:45pm-4:00pm
Virtual or In-Person at DoubleTree by Hilton | Downtown Concord
from the days of ancient greece to modern times, suicide has posed difficult philosophical and ethical questions. clinicians and care providers working with suicidal individuals face ethical challenges which may vary for different age cohorts and cultures. provision of effective clinical/care practice requires providers to recognize and examine their own personal values and attitudes as well as respecting and understanding those of their clients. providers’ response and service to clients must be provided in a trauma-informed manner, with recognition of the strengths and needs of the individual and within the context of ethical codes and standards.
Participants will engage in discussion of ethical issues such as dignity and worth of the individual, self-determination, referrals, and assisted suicide. Case scenarios representing challenging ethical situations with suicidal individuals will be explored through group discussion. This program will encourage clinicians and providers alike to be more cognizant of how their own values, experiences, and belief system impact their work in suicide prevention.
