Suicide (Prevention) Notes

From the Editor

Please note that the May 2015 issue of "Suicide (Prevention) Notes" was the final issue.

This newsletter was published monthly and discussed suicide-related articles that appeared in published journals/articles. The publication was in keeping with The Institute of Living’s Suicide Prevention Initiative, a major programmatic focus on suicide assessment and prevention that combines new research initiatives, clinical programming and advocacy efforts. This focus is in keeping with our growing concern about the increasing global threat which suicide presents.
