Youth suicide is a growing problem nationally. In this training, we will present the basics of suicide prevention, including a look at state and national statistics, and provide insights into how children and adolescents’ brains handle stress differently than adults. You will learn specific behavior indicators, stressors, risk factors, and warning signs. Equally important, you will be provided specific protective factors, detailing how to build connection and resilience in youth, and how to not only approach children who might be at risk, but also to identify protocols for reporting and a variety of resources for assisting them.
