Welcome to the ACROSSnet Web site

Welcome to ACROSSnet - Australians Creating Rural Online Support Systems.

The ACROSSnet web site provides a comprehensive online resource for Australians looking for information in relation to suicide and suicide prevention. The resources available here are of three types:

  • Documents (books, fact sheets, journals, web sites etc.)
  • Services (counseling, disability services, crisis management etc.) and
  • Organisations (Kids Help Line, Lifeline, Centacare etc.)

In addition to the provision of this quality, evidence based information, the ACROSSnet site aims to provide opportunities for community professionals (any person who works in a volunteer or paid capacity providing services to the general community - for example, police, youth workers, school counselors and social workers) and mental health workers who may have a professional interest in suicide and suicide prevention to interact and network in order to provide and receive professional support and development.

Workers who become registered members of the ACROSSnet web site are able to:

  • Participate in discussion forums with other people working in the area of suicide and suicide prevention;and
  • Participate in scheduled online chats with experts in the field
