This week Dave and Carrie interviewed the Director of REACHOUT of St. Lawrence County - Karen Easter. Karen is truly a pioneer in the field of crisis hotline and mobil crisis intervention. Karen answers questions such as what REACHOUT is, what to expect when you call Reachout, how they train their crisis and intervention team, and what to do if you or someone we know is in crisis. Karen talks about how many of us have been affected by suicide in our lives, and it turns out that we were no exception.
