Darwin Suicide Prevention Alliance Inaugural Meeting

On Wednesday 13th April 2022 SabrinasReach4Life hosted the Darwin Suicide Prevention Alliance Inaugural Meeting to discuss the scope to establish an Alliance in Darwin of likeminded organisations to present a unified and clearer voice to achieve this outcome. The recent announcement by both the Federal and NT Government indicating a significant investment in mental health and suicide prevention and postvention gives us all much to look forward to.
