Suicide is a significant issue in Tasmania. Every life lost to suicide comes at a high personal cost to families, friends and communities. The Tasmanian Government has increased funding into suicide prevention to:
- deliver community action plans
- take action at places known for repeat suicides.
- develop a new Tasmanian Suicide Register
- develop an early intervention referral pathways model following a suicide attempt or self-harm.
