Self-harm and suicide prevention

Self-harm and suicide prevention

Orygen’s Policy Think Tank and Suicide Prevention Research Program have worked in partnership to identify new evidence-based approaches to self-harm and suicide prevention in young people, including through accessible youth mental health care, schools, community responses and technology. Through this work, Orygen calls for national leadership and coordination to develop a youth suicide prevention plan which specifically addresses the needs of young people engaging in suicide-related behaviours.
