Sydney Alternatives to Suicide has teamed up with DISCHARGED (the Western Australia body hosting Alternatives to Suicide groups) to share resources and bring together a team to run weekly suicide peer support groups. These group will be run by both Sydney and Perth trained facilitators and will use the principles of the Alternatives to Suicide Charter.
This online weekly 90 min peer support group is a space for people to talk about, vent, sit with, or make sense of suicidal experiences. We are also free to talk about our distress or the things which make us want to die, without fearing hospitalisation or the police being called.
Thursdays at 5:30pm-7pm AWST (8:30pm-10pm AEDT).
