Join Safe States for a conversation with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) about comprehensive suicide prevention. CDC will share their new Suicide Prevention Strategic Plan, talk about their new Comprehensive Suicide Prevention Program, and share information about other key activities, including recently funded COVID-19 projects. The plan and program take a public health approach to suicide prevention—focusing on using data-driven decision-making and implementation and evaluation using the best available evidence to achieve the greatest impact. Following the presentation, participants will have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss suicide prevention.
