Suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death in children 10-14 years old, and rates have been rising for decades.

In this eye-opening report, Little Otter shares its data on over 1,400 children ages 3-14 years old who completed a developmentally-sensitive, two-stage screening for suicide risk and treatment. It brings to light that children as young as 5 years old experience suicidal thoughts and behaviors at rates similar to teenagers and adults. These findings highlight the urgent need for universal suicide screening and access to specialized mental health care for children.
