From donna.noonan at state.or.us Fri Nov 14 13:44:23 2014 From: donna.noonan at state.or.us (NOONAN Donna) Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2014 21:44:23 +0000 Subject: [ASIST_Network] Please read: Correct Forms for ASIST NASW CEUs Message-ID: <6B0B26E060D84442A257F384BA14425A5694CDF5@WPDHSEXCL03.dhs.sdc.pvt> Dear Oregon ASIST Trainers, Thank you for returning the rosters and evaluation forms for Oregon NASW CEUs to me following your ASIST trainings - it's great to see so many trainings taking place and participants able to get CEUs for them! One problem - are you using last year's forms? The "Conference Number" on the form is assigned by Oregon NASW and it changes each year (mid-July for us) and I've been getting last year's forms from some of you. Please discard/delete all your old forms and use the attached ones. The correct "conference number" is 19-14-145 - please use that number. I'll change the number for you on the evaluations and rosters you've sent me, but your participants will need to have the correct number on their certificates to align with whatever reporting they do to Oregon NASW to obtain the CEUS. You'll need to notify them and get that change made. One more thing, would you please fill in the "Conference Date" on the forms? That is really helpful too. Thank you so much! Enjoy your weekend.

I am pleased to send you information about a newly published article from research that took place in Oregon, as part of our previous GLS suicide prevention grant from SAMHSA. Dr. Dan Coleman and his then research assistant (now PhD) Del Quest compared the effects and outcomes from QPR<http://www.nrepp.samhsa.gov/ViewIntervention.aspx?id=299>, RESPONSE<http://www.sprc.org/bpr/section-III/response-comprehensive-high-school-based-suicide-awareness-program-2nd-edition%20%20%20%20>, and ASIST<http://www.sprc.org/bpr/section-III/applied-suicide-intervention-skills-training-asist%20%20> trainings that took place during the grant period. Here is the abstract: As part of an evaluation component of a youth suicide prevention, a quasi-experimental repeated measures design tested hypotheses about two brief suicide prevention gatekeeper trainings (Question, Persuade, Refer [QPR] and RESPONSE) and one longer suicide intervention skills training (Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training [ASIST]). All three trainings showed large changes in prevention attitudes and self-efficacy, largely maintained at follow-up. ASIST trainees had large increases in asking at-risk youth about suicide at follow-up. Convergent with other research, modeling and role-play in training are crucial to increased prevention behaviors. Practice and research implications are discussed, including social work roles in suicide prevention and research. (Coleman & Quest, Science from Evaluation: Testing Hypotheses about Differential Effects of Three Youth-Focused Suicide Prevention Trainings. Social Work in Public Health, 2014, pre-publication.) This is the only study done of RESPONSE, the comprehensive, high school-based program used throughout Oregon. I'm very pleased with the results! RESPONSE affects ASIST Trainers because schools that implement RESPONSE are required to have at least 2 ASIST-trained persons on staff. QPR is an evidence-based practice; both RESPONSE and ASIST are on SPRC's Best Practices Registry<http://www.sprc.org/bpr>. All three programs are used extensively in our state. Dr. Coleman was at the Portland State University's Regional Research Institute when he worked with us to evaluate our GLS activities. He is now at Fordham University in New York (and evaluating their GLS campus grant). Dr. Quest is at the University of North Dakota. I can send you the full article if you'd like it - just let me know. Kindly, Donna Donna G.
