Child and Adolescent Suicidal Behavior: School-Based Prevention, Assessment, and Intervention by Alan L. Berman, Richard Fossey, David N. Miller, Perry A. Zirkel (Paperback, 2011)
Meeting a crucial need, this book distills the best current knowledge on child and adolescent suicide prevention into comprehensive guidelines for school-based practitioners. The author draws on extensive research and clinical experience to provide best-practice recommendations for developing schoolwide prevention programs, conducting risk assessments, and intervening at different levels of intensity with students at risk. Also presented are postvention procedures for responding effectively if a suicide does occur. Legal and ethical issues are addressed in detail. Reproducible handouts include sample assessment questions for students, teachers, and parents; the book's large-size format and lay-flat binding facilitate photocopying. This book will be valuable reading for school psychologists, counselors, administrators, and social workers; also of interest to child/adolescent clinical psychologists and psychiatrists. It may also serve as a supplemental text in graduate-level courses.
