Our Projects Suicide Prevention Lived Experience Speakers Bureau
The Suicide Prevention Lived Experience Speakers Bureau (Speakers Bureau) is a program developed and delivered as a collaborative effort of Roses in the Ocean (RITO) and Suicide Prevention Australia (SPA). The Speakers Bureau delivers professional speakers training to volunteers with a lived experience of suicide who speak at workplaces, community groups and organisations. Our Speakers, through their stories and experience, provide valuable insights into suicide and suicide prevention, and provide practical, useful information to their audiences on how they can play a role in protecting those around them.
Whole of Community Events - we host events to connect the community with their local service providers, encourage help seeking behaviour and the safe discussion about how we can all play a role in the prevention of suicide.
