Book Review-National Strategy for Suicide Prevention: Goals and Objectives for Action by the US Department of Health and Human Services, Public Health Services

The author reviews the National Strategy for Suicide Prevention, outlining the goals and highlighting the public health focus of the strategy. While the historical review is found to be “too short an analysis for guidance on real life leadership dynamics,” the appendices on evaluation of programs, on promising research efforts, on special populations at risk, and on a resource bookshelf are deemed “exceptional.”
