Suicide Prevention Forum A Success

A diverse group of more than 70 people have come together for the Central Australian Suicide Prevention Forum at the Desert Knowledge Precinct in May 2023. The forum has a focus on keeping the conversation happening in our community about preventing suicide and showcasing successful suicide prevention and postvention initiatives.

MHACA hosted I-ASIST training this week—a two-day interactive suicide prevention workshop.

Participants learned how to recognise when someone may be at risk of suicide and how to work alongside them to create a plan that supports their immediate safety. The training offers a culturally relevant framework for suicide first aid.

A big thank you to everyone who attended and to trainers Peter and Eli.
