Welcome to the Supporting Young People Suicide Prevention Full Day Workshop in Richmond, VIC, presented by Wesley LifeForce. Join us on Thursday 10th April 2025 at 10:00 AM at the Richmond Library Meeting Room, Cnr Swan Street and Bridge Road, Richmond, for essential skills training to recognise and respond to a young person experiencing mental health distress who may be at risk of suicide.

  • Around 9 lives are lost by suicide every day in Australia
  • One in two young people are impacted by suicide by the time they turn 25

Workshop participants will increase confidence in their ability to:

  1. Identify signs that a young person in distress may be at risk of suicide
  2. Offer support, resources and a safe space for open discussion
  3. Ask if the young person is considering suicide
  4. Encourage help seeking behaviour
