We acknowledge that attending a workshop that discusses suicide may bring up difficult and distressing emotions for people, especially for those who have been personally or professionally impacted by suicide. Therefore, we ask that you consider whether this is an appropriate time for you to attend a session before registering. If you are uncertain or wish to discuss further you are encouraged to contact the Suicide Prevention Coordinators on suicidepresuicideprevention.southwest@sjog.org.au or by calling 0429 229 400.
