Kent State To Offer Ohio’s First Evidence-Based Suicide Prevention Course In Partnership With Ohio Suicide Prevention Foundation

Recent data from the Ohio Department of Health shows Ohio averaged over 1,700 suicide deaths between 2016-2021, with those numbers expected to increase over the next reporting period. However, few educational opportunities exist for mental health practitioners prior to being in the field. That’s why ÆÞÓÑÉçÇø and the Ohio Suicide Prevention Foundation (OSPF) are working to change that through a new evidence-based suicide prevention class offering.
