  • From what I’ve heard prevent is a joke. For example I’ve heard of suicidaly depressed highschoolers being referred to prevent for saying they were so suicidal that they’d probably make a good suicide bomber.

    Let that sink in. The teacher didn’t refer them to mental health for that comment, just prevent. Some one who at that point had already attempted suicide.

    people with autism are disproportionately ’caught’ in the prevent program and all it seems to do is further alienate them.
