Tender Description

This Tender is invited by the Issuer.

⁠⁠⁠The intention of this grant opportunity is to continue funding the 15 organisations currently funded under the National Suicide Prevention Leadership and Support Program (the Program) to continue delivery of national projects, enhance data collection of grant activities and to ensure a comprehensive evaluation of the Program can be undertaken.

The Program is designed to fund a range of activities that contribute to reducing deaths by suicide across the Australian population and among at risk groups and to reduce suicidal behaviour (i.e. ideation, planning, self-harm and suicide attempts).

The objectives of the Program are to:
* facilitate leadership, strategic partnerships and collaboration in the suicide prevention sector;
* reduce the prevalence of suicide and suicidal behaviours in Australia and the impact on individuals, their families and communities;
* build the evidence-base to enable continued improvements in suicide prevention and ensure the evidence base is shared and translated into best practice across the sector;
* reduce the prevalence of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander suicide and the impact on individuals, their families and communities;
* reduce the stigma around suicide and raise awareness of suicide prevention; and
* provide support and care to individuals at heightened risk of suicide.
