The Western Australian Government has committed $13 million over 4 years to implement the One Life Suicide Prevention Strategy from 2009 – 2013. Gay and Lesbian Community Services (GLCS) have recently received a 3-month contract to consult LGBTI Western Australians and their allies in order to identify strategies and initiatives that could benefit the community and help prevent suicide in LGBTI people.
