A recently published study found that one in five U.S. adults who die by suicide spent at least one night in jail in the year prior to their death. Rapidly and efficiently providing prevention, screening and outreach resources for this group is critical to reducing adult suicides nationwide.
And counties could save money and keep more people out of jail by improving access to community-based mental health and substance use disorder services.
Jennifer Johnson is founding chair of the Charles Stewart Mott Department of Public Health at Michigan State University and an author of the studies.
Dalin Clark from MSU Health Sciences joins the conversation.
