Suicide Hotline

Youth Suicide Awareness in Chicago Schools

On June 26 2010, Governor Pat Quinn signed the Jason Flatt Act into law. Educators of grades 7-12 are now required to receive two hours of training in youth suicide awareness and prevention to be certified to teach in the state of Illinois.

We provide suicide awareness and prevention workshops for teachers (two CPDU's).

For more information please call 312-781-7780.
