Center on Public Health and Population Interventions for the Prevention of Suicide (PHP-Center)

The PHP-Center, a collaborative research consortium that is anchored in the Center on the Study and Prevention of Suicide of the University of Rochester Medical Center, focuses on public health and population-oriented approaches to suicide prevention. EDC’s Suicide Prevention Resource Center (SPRC) is a partner in this effort and is serving as a key “opportunity identifier” for research. David Litts, associate director of SPRC, is participating in the Prevention Research Incubator process. This process seeks to design and develop rigorous research projects that build upon the initiatives of states, communities, companies, or other organizations seeking to prevent suicide and attempted suicide.
