R U OK? is a national suicide prevention charity and registered public health promotion that encourages people to stay connected and have conversations that can help others through difficult times.
Our work focuses on building the motivation, confidence and skills of the help-giver – the person who can have a meaningful conversation with someone who is struggling with life.
R U OK? contributes to suicide prevention efforts by encouraging people to invest more time in their personal relationships and building the capacity of informal support networks – friends, family and colleagues – to be alert to those around them, have a conversation if they identify signs of distress or difficulty and connect someone to appropriate support, long before they’re in crisis.
OUR VISION – A nation where we are all connected and protected from suicide.
OUR MISSION- To inspire and empower everyone to meaningfully connect with those in their world and lend support when they are struggling with life.
OUR ROLE- To support people living in Australia to develop the confidence and capability to be a help-giver to the people in their world through conversations and connections.
