Tasmanian Communications Charter
Tasmanian Communications Charter: A state-based approach to Mental Health and Suicide Prevention
The Tasmanian Communications Charter brings the community mental health and suicide prevention sector together with the Tasmanian State Government and people with lived experience to promote a common language around mental health, mental illness and suicide in Tasmania – so that together we can work to reduce stigma and promote help-seeking behaviour. The development of a state-based communications charter was identified as a priority from Tasmania’s Suicide Prevention Strategy 2016-2020.
You can join the Mental Health Council of Tasmania along with many of Tasmania’s leading mental health and suicide prevention sector organisations in speaking together for mental health and suicide prevention. Follow the link below to complete the online training and become a signatory to the charter.
