The network provides a platform for members to come together once each month to consider all matters and activities related to suicide prevention, intervention and postvention.
The underpinning principles of the TSPN is that suicide prevention is everybody’s business and that strong resilient communities that are able to understand and speak about suicide issues will also have the capacity to address the problem.
These meetings also proactively seek to give input and support to other services or programs involved in suicide prevention matters and to offer a voice to the implementation and development of Townsville Suicide Prevention Community Action Planning (SPCAP) across our community.
The network meetings are open to any concerned community members or agencies with an interest in suicide prevention, with new faces always welcome and encouraged to join the network.
