My data viz work for EpicResearch.org: "Pediatric Suicide-Related Hospital Encounters for 13- to 15-Year-Olds Up 60% Since 2017". More data for people like @JonHaidt #dataviz

ALT Average Rate of Pediatric ED and Inpatient Encounters Related to Suicide or Self-Harm. Suicide-and self-harm-related encounters have increased in the past five years. Children ages 13-15 have a higher risk ( and a 60% increase from 2017 to 2021), and females in this age group are three times more likely to attempt or ideate suicide or self-harm compared to males.
