Prevention strategies to reduce death by own action across ages
The report notes young men die by death by own action more often than young women, though females attempt more. It highlights mental health issues, prior attempts, and substance abuse as risk factors, and urges school staff, clinicians, and communities to improve identification, treatment, and access to resources. It also stresses adult and older adult risk factors and suggests public education, bereavement support, and restricting lethal means.
