Our Mission
The White Wreath Association is dedicated to preventing suicide and improving the lives of those affected by mental illness.
We advocate for early intervention, including rapid admission to the hospital when necessary, to provide individuals and their loved ones with the support and resources they need.
Our primary goal is to establish Care Facilities or Safehavens that offer a safe and supportive environment for those suffering from mental illness and contemplating suicide.
We work to raise funds and awareness in order to achieve our mission and make a positive difference in the lives of those impacted by these challenges.
What We Do
We have created community awareness programs trying to overcome the stigma many people have about suicide and mental health.
We also provide advocacy, guidance, and bereavement support.
White Wreath Can Help
White Wreath Association – Action Against Suicide provides advocacy and support for those who need assistance finding help for their mental health and for those bereaved by suicide.
When you or someone you know attempts suicide, suffers severe depression or is affected by mental illness, the last thing you want is to cope alone.
White Wreath recognises this and offers assistance to help bridge the gap between mental health organisations and individuals.
It has experience in overcoming difficulties you may be having in dealings with a government department, medical professions or local authorities in relations to your own or a loved one’s suicide or mental illness.
Fanita Clark, founder of the association, has spent a lot of time in contact with many organisations and department and has had a good deal of success in helping people to get information and support they need.
White Wreath has a strong network of support and there are many individuals, some of whom have become members of the association, who are willing to help where possible.
We aim to remind all Australians that every life is precious and suicide victims are not just a statistic, but dearly loved human beings, loved by their families, friends and carers.
