Pre-teen Suicide Risk and the Need for Upstream Prevention
Presented by: John Ackerman, PhD
Although less prevalent in the teenage years, elementary school-aged children can experience suicidal thoughts and behaviors, and the reported suicide rate among youth ages 10–14 has nearly tripled in the past decade. Moreover, racial disparities exist such that Black youth are twice as likely to die by suicide than white youth under the age of 12. The possibility of heightened vulnerability during the pandemic will be discussed.

Black Suicide Science: Understanding Crisis in a Different Context
Presented by: RL Walker
The path that leads to suicide vulnerability is often characterized singularly such that a specific set of problems are believed to escalate risk. However, suicide deaths among Black adults and youth seem reveal a relatively unique course. Dr. Walker will discuss patterns of suicide death, highlight relevant research from the Culture, Risk, and Resilience Lab, and propose important steps in addressing suicide as a serious but preventable public health concern.
Postvention, Loss, and Grief and the Pivot to Hope, Healing, and Recovery
Presented by: Kate Hardy
Each suicide loss survivor has a unique story, life, and often times grief journey. Kate Hardy is a nine-time suicide loss survivor who was one of the many who did not feel comfortable in traditional and conventional postvention efforts. This panelist will show the positive effects of using novel approaches to reach and address the unmet needs of survivors, acknowledging that traditional activities and services meet many needs for survivors, and thus, have become the status quo, but out-of-the-box thinking could increase preventative and post-care impact.

Suicide Prevention in a Diverse Social Service Agency: Tackling the Barriers to Achieving Confidence in Prevention Skills Across All Staff
Presented by: Jill Palmer, DSW, LCSW
Our multifaceted approach to suicide prevention is best dispersed across the organization. A level of confidence across all staff is vitally important to identify clients who are in need of suicide support, management, or crisis intervention.

The STRONG STAR Training Initiative: Building Provider Competence in the Delivery of Evidence-based Treatment for PTSD
Presented by: Brooke A. Fina, LCSW, BCD
Treating PTSD has an important role in suicide prevention as PTSD is one of the conditions that is predictive of suicidal behavior.

This presentation will present data on the SSTI program evaluation using the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance (RE-AIM) framework to assess dissemination and implementation outcomes nationally and share information on the training model and opportunities for training for Veteran-serving providers.
