 
Recognized around the state as the only comprehensive school-based teen suicide prevention program in Louisiana, Teen Life Counts (TLC) reaches over 7,000 high school students annually in 45 public, private, and parochial schools in the Greater New Orleans area. The curriculum is designed to teach students how to recognize warning signs of depression and suicide and how to get help for troubled friends.
BE A VOLUNTEER
Twice a year, JFS offers a two-day training for school professionals and community volunteers on suicide prevention. Volunteers must be 21 or older and need to be available during school hours to teach the curriculum.
For more information or to register for the training, please call Ellie Wainer, TLC Coordinator, at 831-8475.
