NavSpace – Support Services in North East Victoria
Local results for Community support services in the Rural City of Wangaratta region.
The program follows the collective impact model and takes a community-driven approach to better address and improve mental health and wellbeing and support for those affected by suicide in the Wangaratta municipality. Within the program there are three priority areas, two of which were directly nominated by community. These priorities are: 1. Creating connections – improving opportunities for people to connect. 2. Including and involving – promoting inclusion. 3. Post-vention – promoting a change in community attitudes and in the response of services before and after a death by suicide within our community. Each priority area is supported by an Action Plan that was developed following community consultation which shaped the activities included within.
