Suicide Awareness Symposium

March 7 @ 8:30 am - 3:30 pm

The Teller County Behavioral Health Alliance is holding its 3rd annual Suicide Awareness Symposium on March 7th, 2025 at the Woodland Park Community Church. The importance of this symposium is two-fold: to strengthen connections and reduce isolation in the community. The most powerful protective factor that we have in Teller County is connectedness. Reducing isolation promotes resiliency, increases our sense of belonging, strengthens our sense of identity, and provides access to larger sources of support.

If you are interested in having a booth, being a sponsor, or providing a presentation, please reach out to Ashlee Shields at ashlee.shields@ppchp.org. We are seeking presentations in the following subject areas:

  • Veterans
  • Local storytelling, experience, panels of lived experience
  • LGBTQ+
  • Impact of Trauma, Importance of Resilience
  • Youth
  • Supporting the First Responder Community
  • Unique challenges of rural communities
  • Depression, anxiety, self-harm, eating disorders
  • Substance use
  • Yoga
  • Art therapy/activities
  • Grief
  • Suicide Loss Survivors
  • And more!
