The Le Va Pasifika Suicide Prevention Community Fund is aimed at preparing more Pasifika families and communities to prevent suicide and respond effectively if a suicide occurs.
The fund seeks to support Pasifika communities to effectively implement community-based initiatives so that families and communities are:
- strongly connected
- equipped with the skills to cope with distress
- actively building resilience and reducing the risks of suicide
- assisted in accessing support services
- supported to build a strong cultural identity to enhance mental wellbeing
