School-based Suicide Prevention:  Promising Approaches and Opportunities for Research

This webinar – hosted by the National Institute of Mental Health – will provide an opportunity for diverse stakeholders, including school administrators, researchers, practitioners, policy makers and funders, to learn about new and innovative practices in school-based suicide prevention, with a particular focus on risk identification, follow up, and referral for additional services for high-risk youth. In addition to describing the programs, presenters will also discuss preliminary research efforts and/or challenges, as well as ways to overcome common barriers to implementing suicide prevention in schools, including data collection and evaluation. The workshop is free to attend and will be viewable via zoom webinar.<h3>Presenters</h3>NIMHLynsay Ayer, PhD, Suicide Prevention Program ConsultantBelinda Sims, PhD, Training Director of Division of Services and Intervention Research Baltimore City Public SchoolsStacey Davis, MS, Coordinator of Media and Instructional TechnologyHolly Wilcox, PhD, Professor, Department of Mental Health, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public HealthAkil Hamm, Chief of Police, Baltimore City Public SchoolsRebecca Lee, Coordinator of Psychological ServicesPatricia Roberts-Rose, LCSW, Coordinator for School Social WorkDetroit City and Washtenaw County, MI Public SchoolsNatalie Rodriguez-Quintana, PhD, Research FellowJill Paladino, MPH, Program LeadRobin Jacob, PhD, Associate Research Professor, School of Education, University of MichiganBoston Public SchoolsShella Dennery, PhD, Director, Boston Children&#x27;s Neighborhood Partnerships ProgramAndria Amador, EdD, Senior Director of Behavioral Health Services<h3><a href="https://thebizzellgroup-my.sharepoint.com/:b:/p/ajackson/EY7BhROBxC9LuYmFgsitoL8BbGlWzw44EaEo_kt1xvJfFw?e=0PMRNU" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Presenter Biographies</a></h3><h3>Who Should Attend</h3>Researchers, mental health clinicians and practitioners, school administrators, and members of the public interested in school-based suicide prevention.
