Abstract: Evidence-based adolescent peer support programs for suicide prevention have shown promise in schools through increased knowledge and acceptability of help-seeking. While multiple social contacts may influence adolescent help-seeking, parents are a major factor. Thus, parent backing for peer support programs is likely to influence their impact, but little is known regarding parent perspectives on such programs.
