Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality (CAMS)

Backed by 40+ years of ongoing clinical research, the Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality (CAMS) is a patient-centered, suicide-focused, clinical philosophy of care based on empathy, honesty, and trust. CAMS is a “Well Supported” treatment by CDC criteria, referenced by the Joint Commission, Zero Suicide, the Surgeon General and the 2024 National Strategy for Suicide Prevention.

In the CAMS Framework, the patient is the co-author of their own treatment plan developed collaboratively with the clinician. CAMS is proven to resolve suicidal ideation in as few as 6 sessions, decreasing hopelessness and increasing hope, leading to a life worth living with meaning and purpose.

This workshop is being offered as one part of the CAMS Trained package. Clinicians who attend will also receive a book, watch a video, and get support while implementing the framework via post-training consultation calls.

***Please note: Participants must read the eBook and watch the Foundational Video prior to attending the CAMS training.***

This is an in-person training. It will be held in the Wurtzman Auditorium at EasterSeals Bluegrass. The training will be taught by Dr. Melinda Moore on March 11, 2026 from 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.
