Where LivingWorks Start fits in LivingWorksā€™ training solution
LivingWorks Start is one of several LivingWorks training programs. Each of these programs trains someone to play a different roleā€”and people playing these roles together can achieve an even greater impact than they could alone. As a LivingWorks Start trainee, you can connect someone to a LivingWorks ASIST trainee for a full intervention and safety plan. You can also attend other LivingWorks training programs and learn to provide more in-depth help for someone in need.
