Why Suicide?Social Ecological Model

“The complexity of causes necessarily requires a multifaceted approach to prevention that takes into account cultural context. Cultural factors play a major role in suicidal behavior.”

“…the work of suicide prevention must occur at the community level, where human relationships breathe life into public policy.”1

![Page 12: Suicide Prevention Resource Center Preventing Suicide in Communities: A Public Health Approach Jerry Reed, PhD, MSW Katherine Wootten, MPH Sixth World.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e585503460f94b5206d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Community
• Norms of communities empowered for suicide

o shared responsibility for the general welfare of
the community and its members
o collective knowledge and ability to confront
situations that threaten the integrity, safety, and
well-being of the community
o positive attitudes towards “help-seeking”
behavior

Achieving Success in Suicide Prevention

“Problems are complex and go beyond the capacity, resources, or
jurisdiction for any single person, program, organization, or sector to change or control.”

4: Resources
“The best and most effective prevention programs are ones that are directed toward using resources which are indigenous to a particular community… external programs generally don’t work as well, as they don’t recognize the values of the culture.”
Sherry Davis Molock, MDiv, PhD
Preventing Suicide: The National Journal, 2(3):9. July 2003.
![Page 18: Suicide Prevention Resource Center Preventing Suicide in Communities: A Public Health Approach Jerry Reed, PhD, MSW Katherine Wootten, MPH Sixth World.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649e585503460f94b5206d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
5: Strategic PlanningMany steps required before choosing programs:• Assess the problem
– Incidence/Prevalence– Demographics– Risk/Protective Factors
• Assess community readiness, resources– What’s in place already?
• Set priorities– Populations, risk/protective factors
• Articulate:– What specific results or changes do we hope to achieve, and
how will those help reduce suicide? 1818
