DHS provides suicide prevention app for employees after border patrol chief reports low morale

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is offering an app to employees aimed at suicide prevention.

The app is customized for DHS employees and utilizes the Columbia Protocol, developed by Columbia University to help identify those at risk of ending their own lives.

A DHS spokesperson told Fox News that they are committed to the mental health and well-being of all of their employees and that the Columbia Protocol Suicide Prevention Mobile Application is one of several employee resources available to their workforce. DHS also offers resources dealing with nutrition and physical fitness.
