Suicide Assessments

Through a contract with the Albuquerque and Las Cruces Public Schools, Southwest Family Guidance Center & Institute provides same-day suicide risk assessments to all students in the district who have made any statement or gesture, written and/or verbal, indicating suicidal ideation. This assessment is conducted at our agency under the supervision of an independently licensed supervisor and involves the student and their family or caregivers. Following the assessment, the student and family are given recommendations and safety planning options to address the student’s specific needs.
