Suicide in Tasmania is the second highest in the country and higher in LGBTQI generally suffer poorer mental health and have worse health outcomes than other Australians. In addition, Australians living in rural areas experience increased isolation and limited access to support services.
There are a lot of organisations, service groups trying to deal with the problem; We will endeavour to try and help people connect with services.
By being able to readily access information and contacts, that is, individuals groups or organisations within the community, it may be possible to facilitate public awareness and discussion of the issues that need to be addressed.
