Listen to thisHello, My name is Tania and I work in an all
girls group home. I was wondering if you could give me some
documentation on self harm and intervention methods that I could try
with one of the girls I work with?
Thanks for your attention; I am hoping to hear from you soon.

A great resource on the topic of self-harm in terms
of research and information is called:
A Bright Red Scream

Hi Tania
Suggest you have a look at this Cornell site

http://www.helpguide.org/mental/self_injury.htm
Check out the above website. If you go under Google (or any other
engine) type in "self-harm" or "self-injurious behaviors" and several
websites will come up.
Have a good one...

Hi,
I found The truth about self harm: or young people and their friends
and family by Celia Richardson quite good.

Hello. In addition to the helpful suggestions here, I also recommend the
Interdisciplinary National Self-Injury in Youth Network Canada
http://www.insync-group.ca/professionals.php
This website includes a number of useful resources for youth, family
members and professionals. It also includes recent research on the
topic.
Hope you find this useful.
Cheers
