Would you know what to do if someone you support was experiencing thoughts of suicide?
Anglicare’s Suicide Prevention for Seniors Program equips those who support older people with the knowledge to help prevent suicide.
The free national program will teach you to see the signs of suicide, have a conversation and refer the person to professional support. The 3-hour workshop is contextualised around the experiences of older people.
The program is QIP accredited meeting all Suicide Prevention Australia standards and funded by the NSW and Australian governments.
To be eligible, you need to be supporting an older adult and have internet access.
Workshops dates for DCMI Members:
- 26 September 2023, 12pm to 3pm AEST
- 5 October 2023, 2pm to 5pm AEST
