What K-12 School Leaders Need to Know About Suicide Prevention
1 hour 19 minutesSuicide is the second leading cause of death for youth between the ages of 10 and 19. Because students spend so much time in school, either in person or virtually, teachers and staff are on the front lines of suicide prevention. Realizing the urgent need, a growing number of states are passing legislation requiring teachers to be trained in suicide prevention.
With the right knowledge, school administrators can expand their prevention efforts beyond just recognizing warning signs and risk factors, making them far more effective. Leaders play an essential role in creating a positive school culture where staff and students understand mental health is critical to academic success.
