This first version of the toolkit is focused on national-level systems that collect data on suicide attempts, deaths, and other related outcomes in order to enable states to access relevant data to help plan programs, understand unique needs of different areas of their states, and demonstrate impact of their work on suicide attempts, suicide deaths, and other related outcomes. Each dataset is profiled with specific examples of what it can and cannot do. Subsequent toolkits will focus on tribal grantees and additional datasets.
