Community Action for the Prevention of Suicide (CAPS) is a not-for-profit community organisation that has been transforming the lives of people at risk of suicide. CAPS TALK SUICIDE Support Service is a free self-referral service available to individuals, families and friends of those at risk. We provide Australia wide telephone support and face-to-face support in the Brisbane area and surrounds to people 15 years and over. Our model of service is different than most in that we do not use an office to meet with people at risk, rather, together we choose a relaxed and neutral environment that is conducive to conversation and establishing a relationship of empowerment, support and trust. Our experienced Consultants approach is to invest time, coordinate appropriate care, and provide emotional and practical support as long as is necessary for well-being to improve, build confidence.
We specifically work with: Anyone, Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islanders, Adults, Families, Men, Multicultural People, Older People, People with a Disability, Women, Youth Anyone aged 15+ Sunshine Coast to Brisbane and surrounds.
