About Us

The Center for Suicide Prevention and Recovery (CSPAR) teamed up with the Clinical Informatics Research Group (CIRG) and experts in Human Centered Design and clinical decision support tools to develop ISACC.

The Center for Suicide Prevention and Recovery promotes the recovery of individuals experiencing suicidal thoughts and behavior and the effectiveness and resilience of the clinical staff and families who care for them through

  • conducting rigorous and ecologically valid research
  • developing innovative interventions
  • improving policies, systems and environments of care
  • providing expert training and consultation
  • listening to and understanding the lived experience of those we serve

The Clinical Informatics Research Group designs, develops, builds, and operates information systems that securely manage health information for projects in the Clinical, Public Health, and Global Health Informatics domains.
