Suicide is the second leading cause of death among teens today. Teens want us—parents, teachers, parish ministers, and youth leaders—to talk with them about suicide, even though they may not initiate the conversation. While it is uncomfortable to talk about, it is essential that we engage teens in this tough conversation. This webinar will help those working in parishes, youth ministry, and schools learn:

• How to identify the warning signs for suicide, including what teens do and communicate via social media and online
• Which youth are at risk for suicide
• Research-based safe messaging guidelines for discussing suicide with teens
• Common questions from teens and suggestions for responding to them.
