Applications are now open for the 2021/22 South Australian Suicide Prevention Community Grants Scheme.

Community groups and non-government organisations can apply for grants between $500 and $10,000 for local projects or activities that support suicide prevention.

“The SA Suicide Prevention Community Grants empower community groups and non-government organisations to deliver life changing work in suicide prevention, and positively change lives for the better across the state with important localised suicide prevention projects,” says Dan Cregan MP.

Chief Executive of Wellbeing SA, Lyn Dean, says, “Suicide Prevention Grants empower communities to break-down stigma, increase connection and hope, and respond with empathy and compassion, all of which can help save lives. 

“Apply now for a South Australian Suicide Prevention Community Grant; your innovative idea could make a real difference where it matters most, your local community.”

Grant applications close on 11 June  and submissions can be made by using the online application form. 

Successful 2021-22 recipients will be notified in July.
