The vulnerabilities of people who have suicidal thoughts or express suicidal behavior are even more pronounced for individuals with IDD. This presentation addressed the complicating factors of assessment and intervention of suicidality for people with intellectual disabilities and autism. In addition, different ways to adapt an assessment and interview with individuals who have IDD and their caregivers were discussed. Finally, ways to conceptualize and formulate a treatment plan was introduced. This training included strategies and approaches that can be used right away.

Prior to European colonization, 2-Spirit, Queer and Trans (2SQT) communities were historically celebrated and venerated across the world. This workshop provided an overview of this history, why and how decolonization matters in our provision of support for 2-SQT/LGBTQ+ communities and how the praxis of intersectionality can help us reclaim 2SQT/LGBTQ+ inclusive and liberation-based communities and support. Participants also gained introductory knowledge on gender and sexuality development and an understanding of basic 2SQT+ terminology.
