Teen death by own action prevention strategies and programs
The article surveys prevention methods for teen self harm across small communities and large urban areas. It highlights Pat Serna’s reservation program with community planning meetings and a local crisis team, and Lee Eggert’s Bellevue schools program emphasizing early risk identification, a 90 day curriculum, and teacher involvement. It cites psychologist Bill Reynolds on risk assessment and intervention, and Dr. David Gunderson on firearms access, mental health, and social skills as core prevention elements. It notes no completed teen deaths in Serna’s program and stresses social connectedness, rapid identification, and cross-system collaboration.
