Suicide Prevention Webinar 3
Webinar 3: Lessons From Real-World Experiences of Connecticut Families and Healthcare Professionals
SESSION DESCRIPTION
The Blueprint for Youth Suicide Prevention acknowledges the importance of cross-sector partnerships, specifically with schools, to support youth in their living, learning, working, and playing environments. The Blueprint offers strategies to help pediatric health clinicians, schools, and other community partners work together toward youth suicide prevention efforts. The Zero Suicide framework emphasizes the inclusion of suicide attempt and loss survivors as a key tenet of implementation success for health and behavioral health systems.
The 3rd and final session of the Practical Approaches to Youth Suicide Prevention webinar series will invite school-based professionals and individuals with suicidality/survivor experiences to share their insight with webinar participants. School-based (K-8 and 9-12) health providers and patient family members will offer their perspectives on positive and negative “management lessons.” Additionally, a representative from Connecticut DPH will describe resources to support providers in recognizing and responding to children with behavioral health issues.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
