Project Details

The Australian Government has outlined a range of suicide prevention policy reforms that combine strong national leadership with systematic regional efforts that recognise local differences. Key among these is the National Suicide Prevention Trial, a major initiative that involves 11 Primary Health Networks (PHNs) taking a systems-based approach to commissioning enhanced services for people at risk of suicide. We are evaluating the implementation and outcomes of this initiative, using a range of data sources and methods.
