Soul Shop for Youth Workers is a one-day workshop to equip youth pastors, youth leaders, camp directors, camp counselors and anyone else who works with young people to minister to those impacted by suicide.
Special attention will focus on youth-specific issues of impulsivity, contagion, social media, mandated reporting and confidentiality. The training includes the creation of worship resource, training in suicide awareness and basic conversation skills, and how to extend the invitation to those who have been suicidal in the past to share their stories.
