scenario:As a group, you are serving as consultants to help create a suicide prevention
program for an at-risk population. For your project, it is assumed you have an unlimited
budget and have access to any resources you would like. A resource list has been provided
within the Topic Resources; however, you are not limited to these resources.Create a
PowerPoint presentation consisting of 10 -12-slide, including title and reference slides. An
optional outline has been provided. The presentation should address the following:Target

problems, veterans, individuals with psychological disorders, LGBTQ, specific ethnic groups,
prison populations, medical conditions, substance abuse, or individuals in public safety).
Discuss demographics, general risk factors, and warning signs of suicide. Why is this
population at greater risk? What are the specific issues or risk factors for this
population?Identification: List ways the program will identify individuals or group most at
risk for suicide (e.g., think beyond self-report surveys and consider including factors such as
behavioral cues, psychophysiological measures, and brain scans). What are some ways the
identification procedures can be implemented in the program so more at-risk individuals
are identified?Barriers: What barriers exist for the chosen population. Who might need to
seek help? (e.g., stigma, taboos, and shame). What can be done to eliminate these barriers?
What role might faith and religion play (e.g., Christian Worldview)?Strategies: What
strategies can be implemented to encourage individuals to reach out for help? What kind of
public awareness/education strategies could be helpful?Prevention Plan: What is the plan
to help individuals suffering from suicide ideation to prevent suicide? Are there established
procedures that are helpful? Are there specific interventions that could be helpful for this
population?Follow the recommended guide for creating effective PowerPoint presentations
