Orygen, The National Centre of Excellence in Youth Mental Health in Australia, has studied the topic and released a set of guidelines for young people and those who support them, such as parents, teachers, and mental health professionals.
This online brochure includes a clickable flow chart on page 4 to direct you to the information that most applies to your situation.
Thanks to the Jed Foundation for including #chatsafe in the suicide prevention article I posted earlier this week.
