By Eric Jones on June 10, 2019 in Zero Suicide

Zero Suicide is a commitment to suicide prevention in health and mental health care systems.

VT Suicide Prevention Data and Surveillance Work Group:

The Agency of Human Services has established an inter-departmental Suicide Prevention Data and Surveillance Work Group that meets regularly to discuss important work and initiatives related to developing a data-informed suicide safe care system in Vermont.

The Work Group is committed to the continuous, systematic collection, analysis and interpretation of health-related data needed for the planning, implementation, and evaluation of a public health approach to suicide prevention.

This work informs:
*selection of suicide prevention strategies and design of programs;
*documentation of the impact of interventions, and/or tracking progress towards specified goals;
*monitoring and clarifying the epidemiology of health problems, to allow priorities to be set and to inform public health policy and strategies.
