You’re invited to submit a proposal for presenting at the 12th Annual Montana Conference on Suicide Prevention to be held in Billings on Friday, July 19th, 2024.

We are pleased to invite proposals which will complement the keynote - discussing the CAMS FRAMEWORK® “Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality”

2024 Conference Theme

Upstream Approaches: Building Clinical Competencies for Reducing Risk & Fostering Resilience

Content should be related to one of the following areas: 

• Upstream innovative strategies for working with people to intervene prior to suicidal crisis, thereby building resilience and maintaining community-based care
• Coalitions, groups, or efforts specifically targeting or pertaining to populations in the Rocky Mountain West
• Education, Research, and Intervention Strategies for marginalized populations in Montana and the Rocky Mountain West

 The COSP Planning Committee will consider all submissions received, but may not be able to accommodate all prospective parties in our schedule or lineup based on a number of different factors. We reserve the right to group or schedule presenters based on the similarity of topics for the purposes of efficiency and presentation quality.

We are not seeking a keynote at this time as we have identified our keynote speaker and program.

All proposals must be submitted by 11:59 PM MDT, March 15, 2024.
