Facebook launches new tool for suicide prevention

Facebook launched its latest tool this week intended to boost suicide prevention efforts.

The social media site just rolled out a new option inside each post that lets users flag when a friend may be considering self-harm.

If you see something of concern from a Facebook friend, you can click the small arrow at the top right of a status and then click "Report Post."

When that person logs in next, Facebook will put them in contact with a suicide helpline or someone who can help.
