Welcome to the Second Life Island for Preventing Suicide, or SLIPS!

Join simulated patients Matt, Reyna, and Jim as you explore the Wenzel and Brown National Park. Begin by practicing risk assessment as you hike through the Park. Collaboratively develop a safety plan while exploring the caves. Visit your patient’s home to secure lethal means and meet with their trusted other. Finally, begin relapse prevention in the Ranger’s Station before returning to the Welcome Center. Before you go, secure lethal means in Ella’s house and stop by the Firing Range to learn about firearm safety and how to secure this lethal means.

Be one of the first to explore our newest experience, the Second Life Island to Prevent Suicide!
