  1. Hi, I just wanted to say thank you for your generosity. I work with CYP in, or bordering on entering the care system in the UK. I really appreciate your work. Best wishes Jo

    1. Hi Agnes,

      You’re welcome.

      The SLAP acronym is used to recall key features of evaluating a client’s suicide plan. S = Specificity of the Plan. L = Lethality. A = Availability of the means. P = Proximity of social support.

      Have a great day.

      John
