P.A.B.S. PowerPoint

Description: Parents Alerted Before Suicide, also known as P.A.B.S. is an app that is used to lower the suicide rate in young adults. This app works by decoding key words and phrases on a child's phone and when suicidal thoughts are detected, an alert notification is sent out to their parents. Once the parent is notified by the app, they can explore different methods on how to approach their child with the topic. The app will have resources for not only the parents, but the kids as well. As users of the app as well, kids will be able to log on and given access to anonymous chat rooms, online psychologists, etc.
