As we continue through challenging and unconventional times, it is important that we are alert and paying attention to the mental health of our children and teens. We can do this by learning or revisiting the signs of when a young person might be in distress and possibly contemplating suicide and learning what to say and do if suicidal ideation is present.

 The California Department of Education, Directing Change, and TeenLine are hosting a free webinar and Facebook Live event: (https//:www.facebook.com/CAEducation).

Suicide Prevention 101 for Parents: Recognizing Signs and What to Do.  This free webinar will provide information about suicide prevention for parents, including warning signs for suicide, how to have a conversation with their teen, actions to take if their teen is having suicidal thoughts, and resources.  The webinar is provided in partnership with the California Department of Education, the Directing Change Program, and Teen Line.
