A resource for the whyalla community

The Whyalla Suicide Prevention Network Inc. is a local volunteer group established in October 2013. The Network are dedicated to supporting the health and wellbeing of our community through public education and community development projects designed to reduce stigma, raise awareness, and promote connection and inclusivity.

We have created this website as a resource for our community to help people connect to information, education, and services.
We invite you to explore our website for information you may be seeking and to get to know more about us, our projects and activities that help the Whyalla community to be suicide safer.

This weekend may bring up tough emotions for some people.

If you're worried about someone, let them know you're thinking of them and are there to support them with what they're going through.
