Although it can feel hard to kōrero/talk about the tough stuff, it’s important that we can all have safe, open, honest and compassionate kōrero about suicide so our taiohi feel heard, supported and understood.

Taiohi/young people know suicide is a big issue in Aotearoa, and they know it affects most of us in some way.

If you notice something is up with someone in your whānau, start the kōrero!

You don’t have to be an expert to kōrero about suicide – you just have to be willing to listen with aroha.

There is tautoko/ support available to help whānau through tough times.
