Suicide prevention remains challenging among youth, as many do not disclose suicidal ideation to others before attempting suicide. However, emerging research suggests that nearly one-third of AI/AN youth see concerning messages on social media on a daily or weekly basis. This webinar training will prepare adults who work with Native youth to identify youth who post or view concerning posts on social media, and connect them to appropriate services.
