Suicide Prevention Program
The National Rural and Remote Suicide Prevention Program is a federally funded program by the Department of Health and Suicide Prevention Australia to aid in addressing the rising suicide rates in rural and remote communities.
The program was designed in consultation with rural and remote communities based on their needs in supporting their communities prevent suicide. It is is run by people who live and have worked in rural and remote Australia and has provided rural and remote people the opportunity to upskill and provide suicide prevention services and training to their communities.
From community scrums and state of mind school programs to crisis support and mental health training, the program works with all ages in our communities.
