What do early adversity and neglect have to do with suicide? The research supports that early abuse and neglect, in the absence of consistent supportive caregiving, significantly increases the risk of suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, and completed suicide. This presentation will review well established data from the ACE research (adverse childhood experiences), factors that increase vulnerability for suicide, and the resilience building impacts of supportive relationships. We will explore the topic of suicide through the lenses of prevention, intervention, and postvention to help increase understanding of our ability to influence individual outcomes and help prevent suicide.
