Teens with Suicidal Thoughts

State: Hawaii
Measurement Period: 2021
This indicator shows the percent of public school students in grades 9-12 who have seriously considered attempting suicide in the past 12 months.

Why is this important?

Suicide is the second leading cause of death among youth ages 15-24 in the US, and for each death among young people there may be as many as 100 to 200 suicide attempts. Although suicide is complex and can be influenced by many different factors, suicide is preventable. Suicide prevention requires a comprehensive approach that combines multiple strategies to reduce risk and strengthen protective factors at the individual, interpersonal, community, and societal levels.
