In this Voices of Compassion episode, we discuss the sensitive but critical topic of teen suicide. In our conversation with CHC Doctoral Psychology Intern, Emily Raymond, we discuss key risk factors that parents, educators, and peers should be aware of, offering practical strategies for parents to create open lines of communication with their teens and recognize warning signs.
According to the CDC, suicide rates from 2007 through 2021 for Americans ages 10 to 24 rose 62%. By fostering a community of compassion and understanding, we can work toward reducing teen suicide rates and creating a safer, more supportive environment for all adolescents.
