Description
WHAT IS A SAFETY PLAN?
A safety plan is a list of coping strategies and social supports that people can use when they are in a suicidal crisis or very distressed. It helps them not act on their suicidal feelings. The plan is brief, is in the individuals’ own words, and is easy to read. It is an emergency plan for suicide crises.
WHO SHOULD HAVE A SAFETY PLAN?
Anyone who gets suicidal and wants help feeling better and less suicidal.

There are 6 Steps involved in the development of a Safety Plan.
Step 1: Warning Signs

Step 2: Internal Coping Strategies

Step 5: Professionals and Agencies to Contact for Help

Step 6: Making the Environment Safe
