Now Matters Now

"Now Matters Now" is an online skills training program designed to teach specific emotion regulation skills. These skills are core components of Dialectical Behavior Therapy which has shown to reduce risk of repeated suicide attempt. "Now Matters Now" teaches simplified versions of traditional DBT skills and includes step by step explanations opportunities to practice and examples of real people talking about how these skills have been helpful. The program is directed to people who are believed to be at increased risk for suicidal behavior but who are not necessarily seeking treatment for that problem.

This concept seems sound. As an extremely invested "stakeholder" with far too much real-world experience on the subject, I would very much like to see this long-overdue project come to fruition. Kudos from Chicago.

This is great. Thanks for doing research that can really help people.

Thanks for posting this. No thanks for this being a "For Invitation Only" program. that really sucks, just like the rest of my world. Why can't people just have this? Is it about money. how about life or death?
