Help change the narrative this World Su***de Prevention Day🎗️

💛Today is a time to reflect, connect and recommit to our shared goal of preventing su***de and spreading hope.

In Australia, su***de remains the leading cause of death among people aged 15–44. Every year, more than 3,000 Australians die by su***de, and over 55,000 make an attempt.

These are not just numbers, they are families, friends, colleagues and communities.

This year's Su***de Prevention Australia theme ‘Changing the Narrative on Su***de’ is a call to shift from silence and stigma to openness, empathy and action, to ensure those who are struggling feel heard, supported and connected.

🌱 Building confidence in mental health support 🌱

The first round of Mental Health First Aid training for Vietnamese communities wrapped up in Cabramatta in August.

Led by peer worker Tam Nguyen from Towards Zero Su***de & South Western Sydney Local Health District, the 12-hour course (delivered across four sessions) gave local carers, volunteers and community members practical skills to support someone experiencing mental health challenges.

👏 Participants said the training made them feel more confident talking to and supporting people and better informed on where to find help.

This initiative was proudly funded by SWSPHN under the Mental Health and Su***de Prevention Bilateral Schedule.
