The Central Australian Suicide Prevention Forum took place on 17–18 June at Alice Springs Desert Park.

Over the two days, participants heard from a powerful range of voices—including people with lived experience and frontline service providers—coming together to strengthen suicide prevention efforts across Central Australia. We also offered workshops focused on Holding Ourselves Strong While Helping Others, Social and Emotional Wellbeing, De-escalation Tools, and Navigating Tough Emotions.

A big thank you to all our event partners and funders: Central Australia Life Promotion Network, Central Australian Aboriginal Congress, Northern Territory Government, CatholicCare NT , SabrinasReach4Life, Thirrili - Indigenous Suicide Postvention Service, StandBy Support After Suicide, Rocket Bretherton, NT Health, headspace Alice Springs, Nikki McCoy, Penangke Cultural Consultants, Trainspire, and Sabella Turner for her warm Welcome to Country. Together, we created a culturally safe and meaningful space for connection, shared experience, and strengthening community-led suicide prevention strategies.

If you would like to hear more about this and other suicide prevention initiatives, join the Central Australia Life Promotion Network—our local suicide prevention network—by emailing healthpromotion@mhaca.org.au.
