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.

A special thankyou to all of our presenters including 13 Yarn, Aboriginal Medical Services Alliance Northern Territory, MATES in Construction QLD & NT, Central Australian Aboriginal Congress, National Wellbeing Alliance, Northern Territory PHN, MacDonnell Regional Council, Royal Flying Doctor Service SA/NT, Multicultural Community Services of Central Australia, Mental Health Services Central Australia Region, Teddy McDiarmid and Kylie Buzzacott, Alison Cunnynghame, and Code 4 Life at Desert Knowledge Australia

The forum was organised by the Mental Health Association Central Australia, and supported by the Northern Territory Government and Desert Knowledge Australia

MHACA joined the DASA Alice Springs 40-year event to celebrate the work they do supporting people impacted by alcohol and other drug use. We had a great morning at the Alice Springs Town Council lawns and had good conversations with service providers and community members who visited our health promotion stall. Thanks for having us!

We hope you have a great weekend and have a chance to enjoy some time in nature!
