Submissions

Suicide Prevention Australia advocates on behalf of our members for the policy change and reform we need to imagine a world without suicide. We serve as an information conduit between the sector and Government, as well as providing leadership, policy and advocacy services, training and research support to the suicide prevention sector.

We regularly respond and contribute to Government inquiries, consultation opportunities and Budget processes. You can read our latest submissions here.
