Compassionate Foundations: Building a suicide prevention culture in the APSAustralian Public Service Commission & Department of Defence The need to invest in public sector suicide prevention capability has also been called out in national reviews including the National Suicide Prevention Adviser’s final advice which highlighted the critical role that all government portfolios have in Australia’s suicide prevention effort. To address this critical issue in the APS, the APS Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Unit (the Unit) in partnership with the Department of Defence (DoD) undertook a large project that eventuated in the authorship and delivery of Compassionate Foundations, a first of its kind public sector suicide prevention eLearning suite that teaches staff about suicide and suicide prevention skills framed around relationships and connection not risk assessment. |
