Lived Experience at Suicide Prevention Australia

Lived experience is integral to everything we do at Suicide Prevention Australia. Working with people who have lived experience of suicide allows us to better represent our members’ views and experiences to government and other external groups.

People with lived experience are uniquely placed to inform how we can support people through a crisis.

Lived experience of suicide includes those who have experienced suicidal thoughts and behaviour, survived a suicide attempt, cared for someone through suicidal crisis or are bereaved by suicide.
