According to the 2023 Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS), roughly 1 in 5 high-school students report serious suicidal thoughts in a given year. Additionally, nearly 1 in 10 report a su***de attempt in the past year.

Families can play a POWERFUL role in su***de prevention among our youth. 💪
✔ Ensure all fi****ms are safely secured and separated from ammunition.
✔ Secure all prescription and OTC medications in a medication lock box.
✔ Keep sharp items and chemicals secured.
✔ Talk openly about mental health and stress---- make sure youth feel seen, heard and valued no matter what they may be feeling.

Parents, caregivers, coaches, teachers — your actions matter. You can help protect the young people who depend on you. 💜

Visit lockandtalk.org for more information and resources on supporting youth mental health.

The forecast is calling for overnight freezing which could lead to slick roadways and patches of black ice, particularly in the western and southern sections of the City.

All City facilities will close at 2:00 p.m. today, Monday, December 8 due to the potential for winter weather this afternoon. All evening activities and meetings are canceled.
