Preventing Suicide, Part 3: Helping Youth Build Resilience and Aviod Suicide

September 27, 2019

One of the most troubling suicide statistics is the increase in suicides seen among young people. In 2016, suicide became the second-leading cause of death for ages 10 to 34. September is National Suicide Prevention Month, and the American Health Podcast is marking this important time with a series of podcasts focusing on research and evidence-based practices around suicide prevention. In Part 3, we'll talk more about this trend, and hear about a school-based training program that enables youth to develop coping and resilience skills that can help them avoid suicide.
