Community Education and Training Programs
Agora has certified trainers on staff who can help train your organization in suicide awareness and intervention as well as other topics such as supportive listening or self-care. These are customizable workshops which can be tailored to the needs of your group.
Our speakers are also available to tell your organization about Agora's services and how you might best use us for support. We can tell you about Agora in as brief a time as 15-minutes (or longer)!
Workshops up to 2-hours in length, located within the greater ABQ area can be scheduled free of charge. We are able to provide this service due to the generosity of our donors, and we happily accept a donation when possible for a group to offer.
Workshops longer than 2 hours may involve fees-
