Suicide Prevention Australia is the national peak body for the suicide prevention sector. We believe that through collaboration and shared purpose, we can work towards our ambition of a world without suicide. We’re a member-based organisation that’s guided by people with lived experience of suicide. We count among our members the largest and many of the smallest organisations working in suicide prevention, practitioners, researchers and community leaders. United we provide a clear, collective voice for suicide prevention, so that together we can save lives.

The Australian Men’s Health Forum (AMHF) is the peak body for men’s health in Australia and at the centre of a broad network of individuals and organisations working together to tackle the social factors that shape men and boys’ health. AMHF provides men with the information they need to lead healthier lives, promotes male-friendly ways of delivering health services to men, connects the men’s health sector through forums, webinars and events, and champions people who work to improve the lives of men and boys. AMHF also makes the case for Government action to improve male health and is the driving force behind International Men’s Day in Australia.

Doing It Tough is funded by NSW Health’s towards zero suicides initiative under the Community Response Packages for Priority Groups. The Towards Zero Suicides initiatives seek to provide leading best practice crisis care and support, build on local community resilience and improve systems and practices to reduce the suicide rate in NSW. The Community Response Packages for Priority Groups recognise that some groups of people are at higher risk of suicide and need specific community approaches developed to prevent this. Doing It Tough has been created to address the priority population of men, noting that 3 out of 4 suicides are men.
