Please join us on November 21, 2024, 2:00 – 3:00 PM ET for the next State Technical Assistance Webinar (STAW). This STAW will be the 2nd in a series of Workforce Development topics. Though we would like you to join us for the entire series, each STAW is a complete event.
During the November STAW, we will focus on how to improve prevention messaging with your workforce. Examples will be provided from suicide prevention, though they are applicable to all injury prevention and safety topics. Please come prepared to reflect on your own messaging and considering how to work with partners and communities to improve messaging.
