Abstract

The population that I am addressing is the adolescent population within Washington State. The problem is that suicide rates for adolescents in Washington State have been increasing in the past decade. After doing research, some key findings are that our society and with Washington State, we focus more on acute care for mental illness than using preventative measures to help with mental illness. The recommendations are to find and implement resources through preventative measure that can help prevent adolescent suicide in Washington State.
