National Indigenous Postvention Service (NIPS)

The National Indigenous Postvention Service (NIPS) supports individuals, families, and communities affected by suicide or other significant trauma.

A Postvention Advocate can be contacted 24/7 by calling 1800 805 801.

We will work with local Elders, community and Aboriginal and /or Torres Strait Islander organisations to ensure a community response is put in place to support bereaved individuals and families.

We can travel to provide support if invited by the family or we can provide advice to Community Leaders or Elders and local services on how best to respond.

Our aim is not to replace the good work being done by local services. Rather, we aim to compliment the work being done by them to ensure the best outcome for families and their communities.
