Twenty percent of teens will suffer from depression by the end of their teenage years, and suicide is now the second-leading cause of death among those aged 15-24. With effective training, you can recognize depression in teens and help them.

This training discusses:

• What teen depression is
• What are behaviors of concern, including self-injury
• How to talk to teens about depressive disorders
• What are the treatment options
• Where to get help
• How to address difficulties that may arise, such as if the teen refuses help.

Our expert presenter is Dr. Mary Fristad, the Director of Research and Psychology Services at Ohio State University Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. Register for the webinar even if you are not available for the live presentation; we'll send you a link so you can watch the webinar at your convenience.
