About Us
Who we are and what we do...
Talk out Loud is a not for profit organisation that provides targeted suicide prevention initiatives, activities and programs for young people under 30 years of age. Our main mission is to equip young people with the tools to maintain a healthy mental, physical and emotional lifestyle using a positive mindset approach. Our current volunteer team is a vibrant and energetic young team who are passionate about removing the stigma associated with mental health. The more we encourage discussion around taboo subjects, the more people will be inclined to help themselves and others. We encourage young people to find their voice and connect with other like-minded young people within a safe and positive environment. These objectives are achieved through:
Exciting winter and summer camps
Secondary school retreats/workshops
Interstate & international volunteer workshops
Professional Development workshops
Working collaboratively with locally recognized mental health agencies
