In fact, one in five teens considers suicide before adulthood. Parents who are faced with the aftermath of teen suicide express feelings of shock, anger, guilt, and depression. This can cause parents to express suicidal ideation themselves.

The City of Laguna Niguel takes these statistics seriously, as do the parents of teenagers in the area. In addition to offering occasional workshops to help parents and teens, the city is now asking for citizens to help with their new Trauma Intervention Program.³ Training will be provided, so no experience is necessary. Emergency response personnel will call these volunteers to the scene in order to comfort families after a sudden death, support survivors after the suicide of a loved one, and help those traumatized by accidents. Those interested in volunteering for TIP can call 714-314-0744.⁴
