Stamp Out Suicide Yorkes · Connect. Support. Save Lives.
SOS Yorkes is a community initiative focused on suicide prevention, mental health support and emotional wellbeing across the Yorke Peninsula. Reach Out Yorkes exists to make their work — and the help around it — easier to find.
“In regional Australia, where the distance between people can feel far, connection is the key to saving lives.”
SOS Yorkes
Building a stronger community
Founded in 2015, SOS Yorkes works so the peninsula can be a compassionate, respectful, resilient place where people can flourish. They share knowledge about mental health and suicide, reduce stigma, and help people feel seen, valued and connected.
Awareness, skills and care
They run Mental Health First Aid workshops, campaign for more local services, and teach the community how to notice distress and step in. They also support people in crisis and those living with loss.
The Blue Tractor Tour
Like the Blue Tree Project, the SOS Yorkes blue tractor travels the peninsula as a quiet reminder that it is okay to ask for support — and that conversation saves lives.
