New Zealand Suicide Prevention Strategy 2006-2016

This Strategy (launched in June 2006) provides a framework for New Zealand's suicide prevention efforts over the next 10 years. Its overarching aim is to reduce the rate of suicidal behaviour and its effects on the lives of New Zealanders, while taking into account that suicide affects certain groups more than others.

The strategy has seven goals:

1.Promote mental health and well-being, and prevent mental health problems

2. Improve the care of people who are experiencing mental disorders associated with suicidal behaviour

3. Improve the care of people who make non-fatal suicide attempts

4.Reduce access to the means of suicide

5.Promote the safe reporting and portrayal of suicidal behaviour by the media

6.Support families/whānau, friends and others affected by a suicide or suicide attempt

7.Expand the evidence about the rates, causes and effective interventions.
