Upstream Together: A Public Health Blueprint for Suicide Prevention

Course overview

This session will provide a "how to" for implementing broad based public health for suicide prevention. It will present the full architecture of that approach and the functions that connect its part. Epidemiological surveillance and the disciplined use of data establish where risk concentrates and whether interventions are producing measurable effects. The session demonstrates how public sectors/ social programs operate as a coherent whole rather than as discrete programs.
