FREE MISC. LESSON - “FREE Suicide Hotline Poster Suicide Prevention”

by Whimsy in School Counseling
5th - 12th Grade


Suicide is an important topic, especially perhaps since the release of the "Thirteen Reasons Why" and related, documented suicide contagion in middle and high schools. This free, downloadable poster is cross-curricular, emphasizing STEM and geography (a quote from Sweden and a scannable QR code) while working to build scholar self-efficacy re: learning how to manage difficult times. The QR code leads to a list of teen friendly hotlines for a variety of emergency situations, from suicidal ideation to running away to self-injury.
