GILBERT, AZ — A brand new suicide treatment center located outside of Perry High School has seen several hundred students after opening months ago.
“To me when I look at that number, close to 200 students, that's 200 lives saved. It's more than just a number, because what we're doing is important work and ultimately, we're trying to save lives,” said Lindsay Taylor, the clinical director of the Hope Institute. “We have never been above a 5% recidivism rate, within 90 days in the Hope Institute,” she said, adding that these numbers are through the Hope Institute as a whole, including other locations.
Taylor expected slightly more students to come through the Hope Institute based on her experience as a previous social worker within Chandler Unified. She said more elementary students are coming for help than she previously thought.
