A survey conducted on the heels of a cluster of teen suicides in Stark County will be used as a tool to help prevent future deaths.
After 12 middle- and high-school students in Stark died by suicide between August 2017 and last March, local and state health officials asked for help from the Centers for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in analyzing contributing factors.
The goals: Figure out why the youth suicide rate was 7 times above the national average during that period and to devise preventative strategies moving forward.
