WA Suicide Prevention Strategy

The Government has developed a comprehensive suicide prevention strategy with a particular emphasis on:

  • young people;
  • young men;
  • Aboriginal people; and
  • people who live in rural and regional Western Australia.  

The WA Suicide Prevention Strategy is aligned with the National Suicide Prevention Strategy: Living is for Everyone (LIFE). It provides a framework and governance structure to guide initiatives in Western Australia for the future. Suicide prevention is everybody’s business and demands a comprehensive approach from Governments and the community.
