Creating a future where LGBTIQA+SB suicide prevention is a national priority
Our LGBTIQA+SB communities know too well what it is like to have a lived experience of suicide.
Systemic discrimination, social stigma, pathologisation and isolation continue to impact the wellbeing of LGBTIQA+SB people across the country. We are more likely to experience suicidal distress than non-LGBTIQA people and in our communities we bare the grief of too many LGBTIQA+SB lives that have ended in suicide.
We deserve better.
We need:
1. Recognition
of LGBTIQA+SB experiences of suicide and the unique wisdom LGBTIQA+SB communities hold in responding to suicide
2. Community Leadership
across all levels of our healthcare system to make sure LGBTIQA+SB people are included, supported and considered in suicide prevention services
3. Funding
for LGBTIQA+SB peer-led and life-affirming services
If we change the landscape, we will change lives.
