NIMH Hosting “Understanding Suicide Risk among Children and Pre-teens: A Synthesis Workshop” On June 15th

The National Institute of Mental Health will convene a synthesis workshop culminating the work of three research roundtables focused on understanding suicide risk and risk trajectories among children and pre-teens, including groups with recent increases in risk. The synthesis workshop will summarize the state of the science and highlight research priorities related to this critical topic. The goal of the series is to ultimately inform identification of at-risk youth as well as timing and targets for intervening.


Date and time: Tue, June 15, 2021 9:30 AM – 11:00 AM PDT
The synthesis workshop is free to attend and will be viewable via webcast.

Please send programmatic questions to, PreteenSuicide@mail.nih.gov.
