[FILM LAUNCH] Understanding Suicidal Thoughts & Experiences in Country SA

In South Australia, rural and regional communities have been overlooked in discussions and responses covering mental health and suicide prevention.

That is why LELAN has partnered with Country SA PHN as part of the Commonwealth government’s Targeted Regional Initiatives for Suicide Prevention (TRISP).

Under this initiative, an Advisory Group of people who have lived experience of suicide distress have collaborated to create a short film about what we have heard from our communities.

It aims to reduce stigma, increase help seeking, and improve community responsiveness and advocacy by sharing insights and solutions from people who have lived experience of distress or who have been impacted by suicide in rural and regional South Australian communities.

We will be holding an online launch for our short film, to share it with the community.

The format of the event will include:

• Introduction

• Film Screening

• Panel Q&A

This online launch will be held 5:15pm – 6:30pm Thursday 17 June online via Zoom.

If you RSVP to this event, you will be sent the Zoom link to join us.
