 In
May 2005, Psychiatric Solutions, Inc. (PSI) became a National
Clinical Affiliate for The Jason Foundation, Inc.
(JFI). The Jason Foundation is a nationally recognized leader in
educational programs for the awareness and prevention of youth
suicide, which is currently the third leading cause of death among
youth ages 15-24.
The affiliation between PSI and JFI creates a national network
that provides programs and seminars about suicide awareness and
prevention for students, educators, youth workers and parents.
These programs help provide individuals with the information, tools
and resources they need to assist in identifying at-risk youth and
finding them help within their communities. By affiliating with
PSI, JFI is now the only national educational prevention program
with 24/7 clinical backup.

help."
