Idaho's Suicide Prevention State Plan workgroup is pleased to launch this effort to support Idaho healthcare providers.
Idaho is consistently among the states with the highest suicide rates. In 2019, Idaho had the 11th highest suicide rate in the U.S., with a rate of 20.4 per 100,00 people, more than 1.5 times the national average.
