Preventing Jail Suicide: Issues We Don't Talk About, But Should

Most jails have suicide prevention programs in place.

Yet, inmates keep dying and suicide remains the leading cause of death in jail facilities.

Part 2 of this series will cover key issues rarely talked about in relation to preventing inmates from killing themselves.

These issues are essential to preventing in-custody suicide deaths and reducing the liability associated with them.

The presenter is a jail suicide expert who is regularly involved with lawsuits related to suicide deaths in corrections.

Audience participation and lessons learned from suicide litigation will be highlighted.

Attending Part 1 of this series is recommended, but not required.
