An awesome group and wonderful time leading our workshop on implementing #LethalMeansCounseling at @InjuryFreeKids
Amazing talk about #lethalmeanssafety at #injuryfree2022. So important to deter access to meds and firearms for youth at higher risk for suicide. @sofiaschaudhary @BKetabchi @drashblanch @EmmaECornell.

Helmets can prevent nearly 90% of head injuries while bicycling! Glad @AmerAcadPeds has published the evidence and recs to encourage all kids to wear helmets all the time bicycling, snow sports and other recreational sports. @DrBenHoffman @mundumuragu @TheRealDrKendi

There are more guns than people and over 100 million more guns than cars in the US! @LoisLeeMD @InjuryFreeKids #InjuryFree2022
Important to think about how better to protect this higher risk population!
@drashblanch found that #Autism spectrum disorder significantly increases the risk of childhood #poisoning, with comorbid intellectual disability and #ADHD raising those rates further.

A new #ColumbiaSPH and @ColumbiaPS study discovered the risk of self-harm and #suicide in people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) were over 3 times more likely to occur than in those without ASD. Findings in @JAMANetworkOpen. ow.ly/ayoZ50GvxTG #publichealth #Autism
Our article highlights the unique risk of both self-injurious behavior and suicidality among people with autism, across the lifespan. @KidsAtColumbia @CUEpidemiology @ColumbiaEM @InjuryFreeKids @InjuryCenterCO @bernardchangMD @AngelaMMills
This systematic review and meta-analysis found that children and adults with autism spectrum disorder are at a substantially increased risk of self-harm, including self-injurious behavior and suicidality. ja.ma/3aTVQVs
