Talks Saves Lives:
Talk Saves Lives is a 90 minute educational program created through the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention that provides participants with a clear understanding of this leading cause of death, including the most up-to-date research on suicide prevention and what individuals can do in their communities to help save lives. Participants will learn common risk factors and warning signs associated with suicide and how to keep themselves and others safe.

Coping with Suicide Loss
Losing a loved one to suicide can be a profoundly painful and isolating experience. The complexity of the emotions can feel overwhelming and often survivors struggle to know who to talk to for fear others won't understand. In this presentation we will discuss some of these factors, normalize reactions, and engage in a discussion designed to help participants gain greater understanding and support.

Parenting in the age of COVID
Parenting in the age of COVID has made an already difficult (and wonderful!) time even more of a challenge. Please join us online to talk about the joys and stresses of these efforts. This group meet every Thursday from 12:00pm - 1:00pm.

CATS Connections
For ISU students on the Autism Spectrum interested in connecting with others to increase their social interactions and improve their experience at ISU and in the community. CATS Connections brings individuals together who may benefit from learning and supporting others with similar aspects of identity. Meetings are held weekly for one hour and facilitated by a staff member from ISU's Counseling and Testing Service.

Mindfulness Meditation
Mindfulness meditation is a proven way to help manage stress, and while fairly simple, not always easy. Having a group to meditate with makes it a little easier, and if you are new to meditation, we will provide instruction and guidance in the process.
