• How to identify your own roles in supporting our people who may be at risk for self-harm
• The importance of attention to the language and taboos around talking about loss to suicide for some Tribes
• How to develop memorandums of understanding (MOUs) with other community providers to create seamless safety nets for those at risk of suicide
