Full Description:   

Understanding and Preventing Suicide An educational program for the public

How can you know if your family member or friend may be suicidal? How do you recognize the warning signs? How can you help?

This video program for the public describes the risk factors and warning signs of suicide and offers guidelines from experts in suicide prevention and treatment for getting troubled loved ones to the professional help they need.

You’ll also hear from three individuals who have made serious suicide attempts and lived, as they share their remarkable stories of self-destructiveness, survival, and recovery.

Special features include further resources on suicide prevention.

Featured experts include Dr. Lisa Firestone, Dr. Robert Firestone and Dr. David Jobes.

This is a companion video to Voices of Suicide: Learning from those who lived, a video for mental health professionals also produced by the Glendon Association. There is some duplication of content in these two videos.

DVD 28 min.
