September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month

As we enter Suicide Prevention Awareness month, we wanted to bring attention to a topic that's effecting our youth each day.  Every year, over 4000 people ages 15-24 end their life, making it the second leading cause of death for that age group.

This video from the Mayo Clinic goes through the warning signs, risk factors, what to say/what not to say, and how to start the process of getting your child help if he/she is having thoughts of suicide.
