Each year about 30 young South Australians die from suicide. Schools have a responsibility to help address the mental health concerns of students to ensure the development of mature and productive citizens for the future. The program outlined in this booklet is designed to help reduce the suicidal behaviors in young people. The report summarizes the results from the first 2 years of the Early Detection of Emotional Disorders Program implemented in 17 high schools in Australia. Contents include: (1) "Introduction"; (2) "Program Design and Implementation"; (3) "Student Profile"; (4) "Families and Parenting"; (5) "Mental Health"; (6) "Delinquent Behaviour"; (7) "Suicidality"; (8) "Vulnerable Students"; and (9) "Concluding Remarks".
