NSW Current Suicide and Self-Harm Supports Satisfaction Survey

The NSW Ministry of Health have been rolling out new services that are aimed at giving people more options when experiencing self-harm and suicidal crisis, particularly peer run services as part of the NSW Towards Zero Suicide Initiatives. The main objectives are to provide holistic approach to suicide prevention by investing in new services, offering suicide prevention training to NSW frontline staff and community members and enhancing support in regional and rural areas.
 
BEING invites you to complete this survey to help us understand how current supports are working. As part of this feedback, BEING is establishing two new committees: the Suicide Advocacy Co-design Committee and the Self-Harm Advocacy Co-design Committee to understand real-life Australians’ experiences of suicidality and self-harm. If you are interested in joining please read more on these committees by clicking on the QR or website link to the Expression of Interest Forms at the end of the survey!
