Psycho-social resilience, vulnerability and suicide prevention: A mentoring approach to modifying suicide risk for remote Indigenous students at boarding school

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

There is not much evidence about what works in suicide prevention for Indigenous young people. This means that social and health services struggle to know where or how to invest their efforts to avert suicide risk. This study responds to the potential of increased suicide risk for Indigenous secondary school students who are compelled to transition from remote communities to boarding schools. It evaluates mentoring approaches that promote psycho-social resilience against suicide risk.
