Kunjur Men’s Group

In 2015-2019 approximately 221 people, averaging 15-25 years of age in Cairns and surrounding region felt their only solution to life’s challenges was taking their own life. The ripple effects of suicide can be felt for years following a death and in many different forms. The heartache from losing a strong man, inspired founder and facilitator Bernard Sabadi to establish the  Kunjur First Nations Mens Collective. 

The inspiration that prompted Bernard into action came at the unfortunate loss of his friend/brother. It was the questions we all ask ourselves during those times ‘What could I have done? What could I have said?’ What doesn’t exist for Men in our region’?
