Celebrating 10 years of community-led suicide prevention

The Illawarra Shoalhaven Suicide Prevention Collaborative has spent the past decade bringing together community members, people with lived and living experience, service providers and local organisations to help reduce suicide and build safer, more connected communities. 

On 9 December, partners and community members came together to celebrate 10 years of achievements, shared learnings and the relationships that have fostered awareness, connection and hope across the region.

The milestone highlighted the power of community-led action and local partnerships in suicide prevention, while recognising the many people who have contributed to creating safer, more connected communities. 

Looking ahead, the Collaborative remains committed to supporting local solutions that strengthen wellbeing and save lives.
