Welcome to AETAP's 2021 webinar series
Due to the pandemic, AETAP's conference this year was postponed but we are delighted to offer you webinars over the next few months.
Our December topic is: Critical Issues in the Assessment and Management of Self-directed Violence and Intersecting Risks
Self- and other-directed violence share underlying risk factors and commonly co-occur, particularly within criminal justice settings (Chowanec, Josephson, Coleman, & Davis, 1991; Hillbrand et al., 1996; Jones, 1986); however, there is a paucity of literature on the assessment and management of intersecting risks. As such, this presentation will:
1) review the benefits and application of Structured Professional Judgement methods in the assessment of selfdirected violence,
2) review overlapping and distinct risk factors for self- and other-directed violence; and
3) discuss methods for identifying warning signs for intersecting risks as well as immediate actions that professionals can take to mitigate the risks posed.

Have a good time and please don't hesitate to ask any questions to the AETAP-Team.
Best,
