Full house for the Pre-conference workshop at @IASPinfo in Bangkok today. Belinda and Marc presenting @Living_Works safeTALK to participants from across the world #IASPBANGKOK2024

[Shayne Connell @ConnellShayne]

Incredible, but not surprising, impact of @LivingWorksAus ASIST training. These are the stories we hear behind the quantitative data that shows people apply the skills learned in ASIST.

Well done @JessieGallier and the community-led model of @TMartinGallierP in the UK #ASIST

[Shayne Connell @ConnellShayne]

Incredible presentation and reach of ASIST and safeTALK training at scale across NSW. More than 20,000 people trained in life saving suicide prevention skills by LivingWorks. Well done @AntheaJirgens and thank you @RoseBJackson #NSPC24

[Shayne Connell @ConnellShayne]

Dr @sarahkliddle of @MonashUni on the Victoria-wide response to the Royal Commission: 39% of safeTALK participants assisted someone thinking of suicide at least once in 30 days following training. 43% reported helping in the 30 days following ASIST. @LivingWorksAus #NSPC24

Incredible to see the scores of people in #BondiJunction walking around in high vis with ‘Mental health worker’ badges on to support the community @RoseBJackson. Imagine a world where this was an everyday sight…how much pain & suffering could we avoid? #bondiattack #mentalhealth

We're excited to introduce Orygen Digital's newest innovation, Mello: a free app designed to address stuck thinking.

It combines practical techniques with tailored therapy activities – and a recent trial found it eased stuck thinking for 83% of users.

I am appalled & disgusted at dog whistling about the granting by Albanese Gov of a small amount of visas for Palestinians (many more needed).

It’s Islamophobia at its worst.

1. They are refugees fleeing for their lives

2. They undergo the toughest screening in the world
