The Healing Foundation launched Stories from community: How suicide rates fell in two Indigenous communities at the Second National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Suicide Prevention Conference in Perth on 21 November 18.

The two case studies presented explore the dramatic fall in suicide rates across both communities, from the high rates they experienced in the 1990s.
