Suicide is everyone's business. MATES is a charity established in 2008 to reduce the high level of suicide among Australian construction workers. MATES provides suicide prevention through community development programs on sites, and by supporting workers in need through case management and a 24/7 help line. We serve the construction industry in Queensland and Northern Territory, New South Wales, South Australia and Western Australia, the Energy industry in Queensland and New South Wales, and nationally to the Mining industry. MATES was established in response to a major report on suicide (the ‘AISRAP Report’) within the Queensland Commercial Building and Construction Industry. This report found that suicide rates in the industry were higher than the Australian average for men, and that youth suicide within the industry could be as much as 2.38 times more common than among other young Australian men. The MATES program is based on the simple idea that suicide is everyone’s business. If the building and construction industry in Australia is to improve the mental health and well-being of workers and reduce suicide, then it cannot be left to mental health professionals: everyone in the industry must play their part. Working for the construction industry in general, MATES is independent of employers and unions and never works directly for an employer. Programs are delivered across the industry regardless of employer or union affiliation.

You might know us from our events, such as the Queer Formal which we take across the country, where young people aged 13-19 can bring a same-sex partner, express their gender identity and meet link-minded young people. We work together with local community groups to engage queer youth with their services, engage with opportunities and have an unforgettable evening of celebrating their identity. In 2018, we also ran the first-of-its kind Queer Ideas Festival, where we consulted with 120 LGBTIQ young people around what they want to see from the Government, Community and Organisations, which was then captured in our Young & Queer Report. Minus18 also delivers LGBTIQ Inclusion Workshops which develop empathy and understanding of LGBTIQ people, and equip participants with the tools they need to develop a culture of inclusion, acceptance and allyship within schools, organisations and communities. We've taken these across the country, with a focus across 2019-2020 to deliver subsidized opportunities to Regional and Rural areas. Our Events and Workshops wouldn't exist through the donations and support received through our campaigns such as IDAHOBIT, Wear it Purple Day and Trans Week of Awareness. These help us educate, create visibility and build opportunities, allowing Minus18 to work with communities and organisations to help drive our work - with 100% of proceeds from donations and all our Rainbow Pride resources going to LGBTIQ youth programs.
