Youth Live4Life was established to independently facilitate and govern the expansion of the Live4Life youth suicide prevention and mental health education model, that has been operating in the Macedon Ranges since 2010.

The vision is that all rural communities across Australia are empowered to support, improve and invest in their young people’s mental health and reduce youth suicide. Youth Live4Life works with rural communities to implement the Live4Life model.
