Assisting Individuals in Crisis (Muskogee, OK)

ASSISTING INDIVIDUALS in CRISIS is PHASE 1 of the process required to become a trained “Peer Support Responder”. This is a 2-day course of “Initial Peer Support Training” / Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) that is intermixed with additional wellness topics for new Peer Support members. This course is the foundation that prepares the student to provide Peer Support and Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) interventions (if needed) during Individual or “1 on 1” interactions.

GROUP CRISIS INTERVENTION is PHASE 2 of the “Initial Peer Support Training” / Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) and will be provided at a later date in this region.
