Student Suicide Prevention Protocol

Bristol Community College recognizes that a student’s physical, behavioral, and emotional health are integral components of a student’s academic success. The purpose of the protocol is to protect the health and well-being of all students by having procedures in place to identify, assess the risk of, intervene in, and respond to suicidal behavior.

The policy is activated when the College has actual knowledge that a student is actively engaged in suicidal behavior, has stated plans or intentions to engage in suicidal behavior, or has previously engaged in suicidal behavior while enrolled at the College or recently before matriculation. A student who engages in any of these behaviors may be required to comply with the college’s Medical Withdrawal and Re-Entry Policy before being permitted to resume classes.
