Universal screening is one of the most effective ways to identify and prevent suicide — and the gold-standard tool for doing so was developed by the Columbia University Lighthouse Project.
We're thrilled to announce that Dr. Adam Lesser, Deputy Director, will be a keynote speaker at this year's Alaska Advanced Trauma Training Institute. Dr. Lesser has published widely, presented internationally, and consulted with state and local governments on best practices for suicide risk identification and prevention.
📅 June 9–11, 2026 | Anchorage, AK
🔗 Registration is now open — join us! loom.ly/Qixfcr0
Dr. Lesser will also deliver a separate FREE presentation for primary care providers and anyone in a position to offer universal screening. The goal: help people feel more comfortable asking direct, potentially life-saving questions. Registration open here: loom.ly/w0c1nUU
A huge thank you to GCI for helping bring Dr. Lesser to Alaska! 🙏

Supporting someone with anxiety: what helps, what doesn't
DO: listen without judgment, validate their experience, ask how you can help.
DON'T: say "just relax," minimize their fears, or avoid the topic. Showing up consistently matters more than having perfect words. 💙
