Program Description:
Suicide is the second leading cause of death for youth ages 12-18. Studies find that the rate for suicide attempts have increased for youth in Black, Latinx and Asian/Pacific Islander communities. Many times white clinicians (or clinicians without shared ethnicity to their clients) work with BIPOC youth. In this intermediate-level workshop, we address social location and the proper tools to use when assessing suicidal ideation with BIPOC youth.
This is an integrated workshop, including breakout groups where we utilize suicide assessment tools to decipher if a client needs hospitalization or high risk outpatient care. We learn culturally responsive therapeutic tools to manage a client’s long-term suicidal ideation. If hospitalization is necessary, we go through the step-by-step process with a focus on reintegration post-hospitalization to present further hospitalization. The presenter normalizes the assessment process so that clinicians bring conversations about suicidal ideation into their daily practice with BIPOC youth and their families.
Clinical Objectives:
At the close of this presentation, attendees should be able to:
- Discuss the new levels of suicidal ideation in BIPOC youth.
- Describe culturally affirming suicide assessment tools to manage long term suicidal ideation in your clinical practice.
- Normalize conversations about long term suicide assessment to bring this into daily practice.
