Suicide Prevention Community Grant

Suicide prevention grants are available to deliver community-led activities that raise awareness and help keep people safe.

You can get a grant of up to $10,000.

Activities for these community grants aim to promote the following:

  • support protective connections and linkages through sport, culture, education and community
  • reduce exposure to trauma (violence, sexual abuse, alcohol and drug use)
  • develop skills in emotional resilience and manage strong feelings
  • encourage help seeking
  • work together to make communities safe and supportive
  • learn what works when help is needed
  • feel confident and sure about how to help.

These grants are made possible through a partnership with the Northern Territory (NT) Primary Health Network and the NT Government.

For information about the NT suicide prevention strategy, go to the NT Health website.

Applicants must meet all of the following:

For more information on the grants contact mhaod.doh@nt.gov.au

Your proposal will be assessed by a panel.

You will need to show how your proposal will:

  • support localised action to build stronger communities that have increased capacity to respond to and prevent suicidal behaviour through raising awareness and reducing stigma
  • address the outcomes and priority groups identified in the NT suicide prevention strategic framework
  • meet an identified suicide prevention need for Territorians.

You can find out about the suicide prevention strategic framework on the NT Health website.

If your application is successful, the grant agreement will require you to provide the following:

  • updates on any key dates to allow for promotion and participation opportunities
  • written evidence of acknowledgment of the NT Government on promotional materials, where appropriate
  • images of the event or project, where appropriate, for use in government promotional material
  • an evaluation report of your activity/project within 30 days after it is completed
  • a financial statement that provides details of how you used the grant.

Successful applications may be published or used by government. This is a condition of your application.

The following may be shared:

  • organisation name
  • amount
  • purpose
  • special approval conditions.

Your event must take place before 31 March 2025. NT Health will ask you for a story about what you did and how it was received in the community. This will help the department evaluate the grants program and plan for future projects.

The following resources are provided to help you with your activities:

Any variations to your application, including changes to the timing of an activity, should be negotiated with your grant manager.

If you are planning major changes to service delivery or are unable to deliver your service, particularly if you are an essential service provider, contact your grant manager as soon as possible.
