This manual has been written for people who want to develop and implement suicide prevention programs. The authors have done their best to present this information in a positive, culturally respectful and straightforward way. Take what you can, modify it so it is more likely to work for you. It is important to note that this manual is only able to focus on the first important stage of addressing the suicide problem: prevention. It is hoped that future manuals might address later stages such as crisis management, treatment, and postvention.
