Handbook of Youth Suicide Prevention: Integrating Research into Practice

If you are concerned about the rising rates of youth suicide and want to make a difference, then the Handbook of Youth Suicide Prevention is a must-have resource for you. This comprehensive handbook not only examines the latest research on youth suicide, but also provides practical strategies and interventions to tackle this serious public health concern.

One of the unique features of this handbook is its focus on under-studied populations such as adolescents belonging to ethnic, racial, and sexual minority groups, as well as youth involved in the criminal justice system and those in foster care. By exploring these specific populations, the book presents culturally informed and targeted interventions that can effectively decrease suicide risk for these vulnerable groups.

The Handbook of Youth Suicide Prevention covers a wide range of topics, including the neurobiology of youth suicide, the influence of media on suicidal behavior, and the assessment of youth suicidal behavior using explicit and implicit measures. It also discusses evidence-based psychosocial treatments for ethnoculturally diverse youth with suicidal thoughts and behaviors.

In today's digital age, technology plays a significant role in our lives, and youth suicide prevention is no exception. That's why this handbook also explores technology-enhanced interventions and their potential in reducing suicide risk among adolescents. It provides valuable insights into how we can utilize technology to reach out to young people and provide them with the support they need.

Don't miss out on this timely and essential resource. Whether you are a researcher, a clinician, or a professional working in the fields of psychology, social work, public health, or education, the Handbook of Youth Suicide Prevention will equip you with the knowledge and tools to make a difference in the lives of our youth.
