Olympia, Washington 98504
Dear Secretary Brown:
The Washington State Department of Health and the Youth Suicide Prevention Plan Advisory Committee are pleased to present the Youth Suicide Prevention Plan for Washington State. The Plan is the result of intensive work done by the committee as directed by the 1993-95 supplemental operating budget.
In preparing the plan, we were reminded again and again that youth suicide has touched the lives of too many of your youth and their families. Suicide is the second leading cause of death among young people aged 15-24 years in Washington.
The Plan includes comprehensive recommendations for addressing the tragedy of youth suicide. It is our fervent hope that the Plan will be the catalyst necessary to begin a concerted effort to reduce youth suicide in our state.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide you with this important information.
Sincerely,
BRUCE A. MIYAHARA, Secretary
The Report from the Department of Health Youth Suicide Prevention Plan Advisory Committee is on file in the Office of the Secretary of the Senate.
