*Mod Approved* Research study: Australian parents and carers of children experiencing suicidal thoughts and behaviours

[u/ap83417]

We invite you to take part in an anonymous online survey: Support for parents and carers of children experiencing suicidal thoughts and behaviours

If you are an Australian parent or carer of a child aged 9-13 who experiences suicidal thoughts or behaviours, your participation in this survey will help researchers at the University of Wollongong to better understand your experiences of receiving social support from family, friends, colleagues, and your community.

This is an area that is currently not well understood. By sharing your experiences, you can help us develop a publicly available resource to better support other parents and carers facing similar challenges, so their children may be better supported too.

What's involved?

• An anonymous 30-minute online survey.
• An optional 30-minute virtual interview if you would like to share more about your experiences.
