Heilala Malu

First Pacific framework for suicide prevention launched

Heilala Malu is the first system to specifically focus on suicide prevention among Tongan youth in New Zealand.

Auckland University of Technology graduate student, 'Aulola Fuka-Lino, says she hopes it helps lift the taboo on suicide in the Tongan community.

She says the resource is a tribute to the Tongan families and the stories they've shared.
