Ivonne van de Ven Stichting

The Ivonne van de Ven Stichting appears in the book’s closing pages both as a recommended source of support or information and as a contributor to guidance for journalists. Its role in the text is therefore practical and public-facing: it is one of the resources offered to readers, and it is associated with advice on reporting about suicide.

Reader Resource

After stating that many people in the Netherlands experience suicidal thoughts each year and that more than 99 percent manage with help from people around them or from a professional, the book directs readers seeking support or further information to several websites. The Ivonne van de Ven Stichting is one of them, alongside 113Online and psychischegezondheid.nl. The mention places the foundation within the book’s final appeal to seek help, without specifying its services beyond that referral.

Journalist Guidance

The closing material is identified as being based on Tien tips voor journalisten by Wybo Vons and the Ivonne van de Ven-stichting. This attribution connects the foundation to guidance for journalists on suicide-related reporting. The book does not elaborate on the foundation’s structure or methods; its documented presence here is through the cited guidance and the signposted source of information.
