Identifying at risk

individuals is a crucial step in prevention and early intervention efforts. Some common factors that may increase someone's risk for certain issues or challenges include:

- Family history of the issue or challenge
- Personal history of trauma or abuse
- Mental health disorders
- Substance abuse
- Lack of social support or strong relationships
- Poverty or lack of access to resources
- Chronic stress or adversity
- Poor coping skills or lack of problem-solving abilities
- Physical health issues
- Environmental factors such as exposure to violence or discrimination

It is important to consider these risk factors when assessing someone's overall well-being and potential vulnerabilities. By identifying individuals who may be at risk, we can provide targeted support and resources to help mitigate those risks and prevent further harm.
