Network faithful – an opportunity to provide feedback to NIMH on strategies to enhance suicide prevention efforts targeted at children and adolescents within emergency medicine department (ED) settings, where many individuals at high risk for suicide are seen. Read the announcement below and take action!
For these reasons, NIMH, NIDA, and NIAAA seek the perspectives of their multiple stakeholders to ensure that the right questions are being addressed related to youth suicide prevention efforts within the ED setting. This is in keeping with a major theme in the NIMH’s National Advisory Mental Health Council (NAMHC) Council Workgroup Report: The Road Ahead: Research Partnerships to Transform Services (http://www.nimh.nih.gov/council/advis.cfm). NIH research is improved when it is informed by broad scientific and public input.
Responses will be accepted through November 9, 2012. Electronic responses are preferred and may be addressed to NIMHsuicideprevention@nih.gov (Please include the Notice number NOT-MH-12-035 in the subject line). Responses may also be sent by letter or FAX to the following address:
