The National Suicide Prevention Office has launched public consultation on a scoping paper for the National Suicide Prevention Strategy.
The National Suicide Prevention Office (NSPO) was created in early 2022 with the responsibility for working across governments, portfolios, and sectors to drive the development of a nationally consistent and integrated approach to suicide prevention.
The development of a National Strategy is an immediate priority for the National Suicide Prevention Office. The strategy will form the basis for the coordinated action which is required across all governments, portfolios and communities to create an Australia where no person feels driven to suicide.
The NSPO has committed to ensuring the voice of lived experience of suicide is central to the development of the National Suicide Prevention Strategy.
