Vermont Suicide Prevention Coalition Meeting:
The September Coalition meeting will be held virtually on Thursday December 7, 2023, from 8:30 am to 12:00 pm.
We will begin the meeting by networking and sharing an overview of the morning. Our state partners at the Department of Mental Health and Vermont Department of Health will share updates on their work in suicide prevention.
Chris Allen, Director of Suicide Prevention for the Vermont Department of Mental Health, will discuss the development of the Suicide Prevention Strategic Plan. Also joining us is Kevin Crowley of CAMS to give an overview on the therapeutic framework and how CAMS fits into our communities of care. This is followed by a student presentation about a United Way of Northeastern Vermont and UVM collaboration focused on a relevant systems approach to suicide prevention. We will end with Heather White and Terri Lavely of American Foundation for Suicide Prevention discussing upcoming Legislative Activities for 2024.
