Trauma and Moral Injury Recovery Coach Sharmin Prince will spearhead a suicide prevention training seminar dubbed ‘safeTALK’ on Thursday, January 30, at the National Library. The seminar will equip persons with the necessary tools to understand the nuances of suicide prevention and how to react if someone is having suicidal thoughts.
Sharmin has been doing consultancies in the US for many years that saw her being involved in at least four seminars a year. She spent a total of 20 years in the human services area and served in all capacities. She worked for Volunteers of America for more than 18 years. Her many years of experience have made her one of the most qualified persons to lead the seminar, which she is eagerly looking forward to doing. While Sharmin’s qualifications make her highly qualified to talk on such issues, nothing beats personal experience. The woman confided that she herself had contemplated suicide, not once but on two occasions.
