Adolescent suicide is a significant and troubling public health issue in the United States. Although there have been attempts to develop suicide prevention programs for adolescents, there is no consensus as to what methods are most effective. One popular method of prevention is the implementation of school-based suicide awareness curriculums. A suicide prevention program, SAFE:TEEN Plus, was evaluated. Using a self-report survey, high school students' and staff members' knowledge, attitudes, awareness, and potential responses to suicidal youths were measured prior to participation in the program, immediately following participation, and at one or two follow-up points. Descriptive statistics were used to describe changes in the above areas. Students demonstrated an increase in knowledge, favorable attitudes, and awareness of potentially suicidal youth following participation in the program. Staff members previously held high levels of knowledge and favorable attitudes and thus they demonstrated little change in these areas. Limitations and implications of this study are discussed.

Abstract: The purpose of this project is to implement a suicide prevention program for the consumers and staff of Center for Hope, a mental health and substance dependence treatment facility. A literature review was conducted to examine the history of suicide prevention strategies and discuss existing suicide trainings available for professionals who come into contact with those at risk for suicide. In addition to exploring in-depth the prevalence and risk/protective factors of suicide, a comprehensive search was conducted to identify the California Endowment Foundation as a possible funding source for this suicide prevention program. Following this search, the process of allocating funds and lessons learned was discussed. Actual submission and/or funding of this grant was not required for successful completion of this thesis.
