including the Pacific Island region in future surveys, and expanding questions to collect data on why young people commit
suicide;(d)partner with educational systems, as well as federal, state, and local governments, to share resources and knowledge;
(e)the need to address prevention differently for males and females, and the need to expand the evidence based for gender-specific
treatment models; (f)strategies for spreading health messages, including partnering with the entertainment industry, utilizing
social media, and placing messages in places that women congregate; (g)that SAMHSA take steps to end the disproportionate
representation of women of color in prisons; (h)reimburse other countries for services provided to military families; (i)improve
