We all want to keep our kids safe. Thoughts of suicide are scary and more common then we think. How can you be sure your kid is not thinking of suicide and if they are , what can you do to help them?

Join us Monday, September 30th 8-9:30 p.m. in honor of national suicide prevention month, for a free webinar to learn the warning signs of suicide in young children and how to practice prevention and intervention with the latest research and best practices.

The presentation will be given by Dr. Jill Harkavy-Friedman, a pioneer in suicide research. Dr. Jill Harkavy-Friedman was the first researcher to ask high school students about suicidal ideation and behavior. As the Vice President of Research, she leads the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention’s growing research grant program, working with over 150 scientific advisors to evaluate progress in the field and chart the next areas of inquiry to yield impactful insights and strategies for suicide prevention. She has published over 100 articles, and has appeared as an expert in the Washington Post, USA Today, Newsweek, and other publications.
