Service Description

To help build the capacity, skills and knowledge of families, friends, workplaces, and the community to respond to distress or suicide concerns.

Gatekeeper trainings include ASIST, QPR, and Deadly Thinking.

These trainings are available to anyone in the community who would like to gain skills in suicide first aid, recognising suicide warning signs, asking about suicide, and keeping someone safe during crisis.
