Consultation report
As part of The Way Back Information Resources Project, Everymind undertook in-depth interviews with individuals who had attempted suicide and people who had provided support to family members or friends that had attempted suicide.
Participants were recruited through Beyond Blue’s blueVoices and Suicide Prevention Australia, and consisted of people who had attempted suicide, family members or friends of a person who had attempted suicide, and people who fell into both categories.
