Whether they are friends, family, or co-workers, the Kewaunee County UW-Madison Extension office wants to ensure you have the tools to help a person in need. The office will hold suicide prevention training classes on February 27th at the Kewaunee County Fairgrounds Expo Hall. Under the guidance of Kewaunee County Sheriff Matt Joski, the course will help you recognize the signs of suicide and prevention, learn what to say and what not to say, and be prepared for circumstances that may pop up in daily life. Extension educator Renee Koenig says the office has put on the course for years. They recently turned their focus to local business owners and their employees so they can potentially help while in the workplace.

The 90-minute training on February 27th will occur at 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. You can register for the course by clicking on this link.
