New Program to tackle Australia’s Highest Rate of Suicide in a Decade

Suicide in Australia is at all time high. Our current rates for 15 to 44 year olds are the highest we have seen in a decade. There are plenty of awareness campaigns that are doing great work fighting the stigma of mental health issues, but with some many campaigns why are we seeing this statistic? And are there any new programs coming out to help?

Rachel Green, Director of the new suicide prevention program, Lifespan spoke to The Daily about the issue.
