Canberra After Suicide Support
Canberra After Suicide Support (CASS) is a self-help group, organised by people who have experienced the consequences of the suicide death of someone close to them.
CASS helps reduce the isolation suffered by those bereaved by suicide, by introducing them to others who understand the heartache of suicide bereavement. CASS also organises the annual Remembrance Ceremony for Lives Lost to Suicide.
