Psychology, Adolescents suicide
what stressors can be identified in the middle school students that would trigger suicidal ideation or what is the leading cause of suicide in 10-12 years boys compared to girls in the same age group?
Youth suicide is a growing public health concern. As schools are becoming a key entry point
for preventing and addressing youth suicide, the integration of suicide prevention efforts into
existing school mental health (SMH) systems is becoming even more important. Unfortunately,
as schools expand and adapt their existing SMH systems to meet this need, little
guidance is available to them regarding how to do this. This article shares a case study
documenting one rural school district’s efforts to initiate, implement, and evaluate a suicide
prevention program (Yellow Ribbon Ask 4 Help) through integration into the district’s
existing SMH system. Data were collected from 5,949 sixth- to 12th-grade students over
four academic years, and changes were tracked in relationship to students’ knowledge and
help-seeking behaviors to support peers with suicidal thoughts
