Abstract "The extensively updated second edition of Suicide in Schools provides school-based professionals with practical, easy-to-use guidance on developing and implementing effective suicide prevention, assessment, intervention, and postvention strategies. The Suicide in Schools Model provides readers with clear, step-by-step guidelines on how to work proactively with school personnel and community professionals, screen, assess, and monitor suicide risk, create collaborative safety plans, and plan for re-entry after a suicidal crisis. The authors expand this new edition with detailed case examples, innovative approaches such as upstream prevention strategies, usable handouts, and internet resources to effectively work with youth facing a suicidal crisis as well as students, families, and school staff who have suffered a suicide loss. Updates include expanding the literature on cyberbullying and social media, the higher risk of suicide in ethnoracial minoritized youth and LGBTQ+ students, and the role of suicide in school violence. This book is essential reading for school-based administrators, crisis team members, and mental health professionals as well as for outside providers who work collaboratively with school districts"-- Provided by publisher.
