Summary:
In this DVD we combined two shorter talks about Understanding and Preventing Suicide and Teen Suicide Prevention.
Understanding and Preventing Suicide
Suicide is a serious public health problem. It is the 11th leading cause of death across the lifespan claiming the lives of more than 32,000 US citizens each year; nearly 90 people a day. Every two hours and eleven minutes someone under 25 completes suicide. Each suicide affects an untold number of family members, friends and acquaintances. Prevention specialists agree suicide can be prevented and its impact reduced in much the same way that deaths due to drunk driving, HIV/AIDS, and drug abuse have been reduced. Imagine how the lives of people would change if even 20% of suicide deaths were prevented. Every life is important and making a difference can be easy as understanding the issues related to suicide and learning warning signs and prevention strategies that can save lives.
Teen Suicide Prevention
Teen Suicide Prevention: Act Now will focus on signs, symptoms and the treatment of depression in youth. Reducing stigma and how to ACT (acknowledge, care and tell) is an integral part of her program.
