Suicide...how Native Americans rank
permalink
According to the CDC,

Suicide rates are highest among Whites and second highest among American Indian and Native Alaskan men (CDC 2004).

American Indian and Alaskan Natives have the highest rate of suicide in the 15 to 24 age group (CDC 2004).

Taken from the CDC fact sheet located here:
