Suicide prevention community grants now being evaluated

Suicide is complex, multi-faceted, and can have lasting impacts across communities.

Through the Commonwealth Government's Targeted Regional Initiatives for Suicide Prevention, Murray PHN offered grants for projects aimed at reducing the impact and incidence of suicide.

Applications for grant amounts of up $10,000, $50,000 and $150,000 were available to local community groups, organisations and service providers to deliver projects in line with the Black Dog Institute's Lifespan Framework.

Interested parties were invited to submit a proposal through Murray PHN's e-tendering website, eProcure (https://app.eprocure.com.au/murrayphn).

Tender submissions closed at 3pm on Monday 4 December 2023. Thank you to all who applied. Applications are now being evaluated and applicants will be notified in due course.
