R U OK?'s vision is a world where we're all connected and protected from suicide. Our mission is to inspire and empower people to meaningfully connect with those in their world and lend support when they are struggling with life.
By inspiring people to take the time to ask "Are you OK?" and listen, we can help people struggling with life feel connected long before they even think about suicide.
About 8 people take their lives every day in Australia
Sadly, for every death, it’s estimated 30 people will attempt suicide

Every step you take in July can make a difference
