    Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

    If you value the community and would like to help support its continued operation, donations are greatly appreciated. If you wish to donate via Bank Transfer or other options, please open a ticket.

Hi all,

I'm in the planning stage of a forum-wide survey (with oversight & approval from SaSu's admin/mod team of course).

To improve the conceptualization & representation of what our members want in the study, I'd like to engage the forum for feedback or ideas; any questions you'd like to see asked in the survey, thoughts you have, etc. feel free to share them openly & freely :)

The aims of the study are as follows (copied from a preliminary version of the consent form):

WHY ARE WE DOING THIS SURVEY?
The purpose of this survey is to document the experiences of members on the forum. Our goal is to collect data to critically evaluate the pro-choice, person-centered, and harm reductive philosophical orientation of the forum. This goal is followed by multiple sub-goals:

  • Better meet the needs of forum members by informing administrative communication, oversight, and practice that employs a harm reductive and choice-focused philosophy that is strictly evidence-based.
  • Dispel common public myths and misrepresentations about the forum and its users to remove stigma and improve representation of suicidal people; a socially marginalized & alienated group.
  • Encourage future research on suicide prohibition norms, laws, marginalization and their outcomes.
