The emphasis is on teaching suicide first-aid to help a person at risk stay safe and seek further help as needed. Participants learn to use a suicide intervention model to identify persons with thoughts of suicide, seek a shared understanding of reasons for dying and living, develop a safeplan based upon a review of risk, be prepared to do follow-up, and become involved in suicide-safer community networks. The learning process is based on adult learning principles and highly participatory. Graduated skills development occurs through mini-lectures, facilitated discussions, group simulations, and role plays.

Intentional Peer Support is a powerful framework for thinking about and creating transformative relationships. Practitioners learn to use relationships to see their lives and identities from new angles, develop greater awareness of personal and relational patterns, and support and challenge each other in trying new things. IPS is used across the world in settings ranging from peer-run programs to traditional human services. We come from a history of grassroots alternatives that focus on building relationships that are mutual, explorative, and conscious of power, discrimination, and oppression.

In a highly interactive environment, participants learn the tasks and principles of IPS, examine assumptions about who they are, acknowledge our histories of oppression and trauma through a lens of ‘what happened’ and explore ways to create relationships in which power is negotiated, co-learning is possible, and support goes beyond traditional notions of “helper and helpee” IPS is all about opening up new ways of seeing, thinking, and doing, and here we examine how to make this possible within our communities.
