Mindframe is a national program supporting safe and non-stigmatising communication about suicide, mental health concerns and alcohol and other drugs. The focus of Mindframe Plus is to help individuals and organisations be better prepared for responding to suicide incidents or proactive suicide prevention communications.

Mindframe’s support provides evidence-based knowledge and context surrounding safe and responsible ways to communicate to groups of people when responding to an incident while minimising harm for people in distress or those bereaved by suicide.

Aims of the Mindframe Plus online workshop include:

• ensuring strong application of Mindframe guidelines
• supporting local organisations and sectors to build collaborative relationships
• supporting local organisations and sectors that work with the media
• reducing risk of inappropriate reporting and communications
• empowering local stakeholders to make informed decisions with suicide prevention messages
