FECG BLACK MAN EDUCATOR ROUNDTABLE DISCUSSION SESSION on “World Mental Health Day (10/10/2020): Adolescent Suicides In The Black Community” w/ Guest Speaker Dr. Danielle J. Johnson, MD FAPA Facilitated by Sean A. Fisher Sr., Ed.S., SRPC, CTIXC

Suicide is the second-leading cause of death for teenagers in the U.S., but over the same period studied, suicide attempts decreased among teens in every ethnic group except for African Americans. Self-reported suicide attempts among white teenagers fell by 7.5% between 1991 and 2017.

Suicide attempts among Black Children and teenagers have increased by 73% since 1991, according to data published in the Journal of Pediatrics. For Black Boys, a significant increase in injury by attempt occurred, which suggests that Black Boys may be engaging in increasingly lethal means when attempting suicide.

On World Mental Health Day 2020, Dr. Danielle J. Johnson (https://lindnercenterofhope.org/leadership/johnson-danielle-j/) joined our monthly Black Man Educator Round Table Discussion Sessions as a guest speaker. She delivered a powerful and timely message on “Adolescent Suicides in the Black Community.” The event was attended nationally by Systems-Level Educational Leaders, School Leaders and Family Community Engagement Managers. The conversation was facilitated by Fisher Educational Consulting Group CEO Sean A. Fisher Sr. Thank you, Dr. Johnson for donating your time and expertise to educate us on this very serious topic. We look forward to having you join us again next year.
