SUICIDE: It’s time we talked

• We will present a '45-minute Health Play' fact-checked by Headspace and Mental Health Victoria: experiential learning is a powerful tool. • We will present a 30-minute Q&A using evidence base of Positive Psychology and neuroscience: this learning session will enhance mental wellbeing and resilience. • We will provide a ‘need-to-know’ 36-page resource with information sourced from credible experts and first-person interviews (a mix of theory and personal) – from Parenting Guides Ltd, the partner organisation and organising body.

Collaborating with ‘best practice’ and ‘like-minded’ people and foundations to pool resources and eliminate duplication: youth suicide is a difficult subject confronting all communities. • Targeting parents, carers, educators and health professionals working with teenagers: we especially want parents to take ‘ownership through education’. • Delivered in a safe environment (i.e. community libraries/theatres/schools), sessions will include up to 120 people at a time. • Delivered in an art form that has ‘light and shade’: understanding the impact of mental health on families is not to be underestimated. • Backed up with a hard copy 36-page educational resource: not a pdf.
