The presentation reviews the scope of suicide as well as its impact, causes, risk factors and effect on different communities and demographic groups. Prevention measures to reduce suicide risk and promote positive self-care will be topics along with guidance on how to recognize warning signs, start a conversation with someone at risk, and how to offer support and resources for yourself or others.
