Safe Space Eastern Suburbs

Service Description

Safe spaces are ‘drop in’ style spaces that offer a non-clinical alternative to acute, clinical services such as emergency departments for people experiencing emotional distress or suicidal crisis. Safe Spaces provide warm, welcoming environments in which to reduce distress. They are staffed by suicide prevention peer workers with their own lived experience of crisis who can connect with others through the mutual understanding that comes with meaningful shared experience.
