Suicide Prevention Plan For Schools: A guideline to create a comprehensive school suicide prevention policy

By Karisa Quick

This book is for anyone working, volunteering or invested in schools and ensuring that their school has a current and empirically researched suicide prevention policy. This includes prevention, intervention and postvention efforts. This plan outlines how to create a comprehensive policy, and what should be included. Workbook pages are included that individuals or a team can write in to determine what is lacking and working in their current suicide prevention policy. Examples of appropriate documentation that schools can use is also included. Prevention explores why, what, and how schools should involve staff, students and parents in suicide prevention efforts. Intervention efforts include how to assess who is at-risk for suicide and interventions for addressing these individuals. If a suicide is completed by a student at the school, postvention guides schools on how they should respond. This plan is for public, private, charter and choice schools. Schools across America can use this plan, and California laws regarding the school's role in suicide prevention are included.
