1.  Who do you plan to interview?  What is this person's area of expertise?
For this interview, I intend on interviewing Lizette Martinez from the DIdi Hirsch Suicide Prevention Center. Her current position in this facility is the Training Coordinator for online suicide prevention chats. hotline volunteers and support group members. She is responsible for all of the education that the volunteers receive in order to ensure that each person who is receiving help is receiving the best help possible.
 
2.  Verify that you have called your interviewee to schedule an interview.  What is the date and time of the interview?
Currently, my interviewee and I are still discussing times which are compatible for both of us. Initially, we discussed having it in person, however, video chatting may be our best option considering that our central locations are far from each other.

3.  Phrase an open-ended question that will help you find research resources that would help to answer the EQ.
Why would being educated on suicide prevention risk factors assist in approach?
How is approaching someone who may be experiencing suicidal ideation be done?

4.  Phrase an open-ended question that will help you think about other useful activities you might do to help you answer the EQ (IC2, possible experts to talk to, etc).
How can access to resources help prevent suicide?

5.  Phrase two open-ended questions that help you to understand your interviewee's perspective on an aspect of your EQ.
What factors do you believe are the most significant to leading someone into considering suicide?
Why is proper education on risk factors important to preventing suicide?
How would one approach someone who is considering suicide, or is at high risk of completing it?
