Understanding and Treating Suicidal Thoughts and Behaviors in Autistic Individuals

August 25 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

The image shows a single awareness ribbon made of satin material. The ribbon features two distinct colors: one half is teal and the other half is purple. The ribbon is looped in the traditional awareness‑ribbon shape, with the ends crossing at the bottom and the top forming a smooth rounded loop. The texture of the ribbon appears slightly glossy, reflecting soft light that highlights subtle folds and stitching along the edges. The background is blurred with muted tones, creating a gentle gradient that keeps focus on the ribbon itself. No text or additional objects are present in the image.
