Facebook announces new tools for suicide prevention

photo credit: Facebook Last week Facebook unveiled that they will be launching better tools to help combat suicide. They've worked with organizations such as Save.org, Now Matters Now, National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, and many more to make sure these tools are resources for someone who is troubled or even their family members. The new feature will allow more support for those who are troubled, but also allow for friends and family members to report a post they think is troubling, it's then reviewed by 24/7 support. The next time the person logs into Facebook they will see options like the one in the picture. Mental health is a huge issue, so I think this is a step in the right direction of social responsibility on Facebook's part. ~ChicDivaGeek
