All In: Adelaide Suicide Prevention Collaboratives Forum
About this Event
All In: Adelaide Suicide Prevention Collaboratives Forum brings together members of Adelaide's Suicide Prevention Collaboratives from the Northern, Central, and Southern regions to strengthen connections, share learnings, and build a coordinated approach to suicide prevention across our communities. Through lived experience perspectives, research insights, collaborative practice, networking, and a workshop session, participants will explore emerging evidence, celebrate local achievements, and contribute to future planning. The forum provides an opportunity to align community action with regional and state priorities, strengthen collective impact, and support a shared commitment to improving mental health, wellbeing, and suicide prevention outcomes across Adelaide
