In Remembrance of All Victims of Suicide
Suicide/Mental illness is like our modern-day cancer; everybody knows someone directly or indirectly affected by suicide.
Suicide/Mental illness affects all walks of life, all cultures and all ages regardless of whether we are rich, famous or poor.
Think about this.

About Us
Preventing suicide and improving the lives of those affected by mental illness
White Wreath Association is a non-denominational, non-profit charitable organisation providing help and assistance for those suffering mental trauma or considering suicide.
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 to achieve our mission and make a positive difference in the lives of those impacted by these challenges.
Staff by Volunteers
White Wreath is staffed completely by unpaid volunteers, and we do not receive any government financial assistance. All the services provided by White Wreath are free, and we do not charge for any help/assistance or costs we may incur.
Advocacy & Advice
White Wreath Association provides advocacy and advice for those with mental health problems who are finding it difficult to get help within the complicated public mental health system, and we often spend weeks/months on individual cases.
As a non-profit charitable organisation, White Wreath also provides support to families, friends and work colleagues who have been touched by suicide.
What We Do
Community Awareness Programs
We have created programs trying to overcome the stigma many people have about suicide and mental health.

Services
White Wreath Can Help
Action Against Suicide
White Wreath offers assistance to bridge the gap between mental health organisations and individuals.
We provide advocacy and support for those seeking mental health help and those bereaved by suicide. When you or someone you know attempts suicide, suffers from severe depression or is affected by mental illness, the last thing you want is to cope alone.
White Wreath has a strong support network and is willing to help where possible.
Our founder, Fanita Clark, has spent a lot of time in contact with many organisations and departments and has had a good deal of success in helping people get the information and support they need.
We have experience in overcoming difficulties you may be having in dealings with a government department, the medical professions or local authorities in relation to your own or a loved one's mental illness.
We aim to remind all Australians that every life is precious and suicide victims are not just statistics but dearly loved human beings, loved by their families, friends and carers.
White Wreath Needs Your Help
Be a part of our mission to help others
White Wreath volunteers are active in the broader community, creating awareness of misunderstandings and myths relating to mental illness and educating the community on the serious shortages in appropriate mental health treatments.
We operate solely on public support/donations, and if you want us to continue the good work, we earnestly ask you to please donate.
