R U OK Day

R U OK? is a harm prevention charity that encourages people to stay connected and have conversations that can help others through difficult times in their lives.

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.

We encourage and empower people to invest more time in their personal relationships and be alert to those around them, have a meaningful

conversation and, if needed, connect someone to appropriate support, long before they’re in crisis.

R U OK?Day is Thursday 9 September

It’s our national day of action when we remind Australians that every day is the day to ask, “are you OK?” if someone in your world is struggling with life’s ups and downs.

The message for R U OK?Day 2021 is:

Are they really OK? Ask them today.

Do you know how the people in your world are really going?

Life’s ups and downs happen to all of us.

So, it’s important you stay connected and make asking “are you OK?” a part of your everyday. That way if someone you know is struggling with something big, something small, or maybe nothing at all – they’ll know you care.

In the lead up to R U OK? Day we’ll help you learn how and when you can make a moment meaningful by asking “are you OK?”.

When might I need to ask, “are you OK?”

There are times in life that can really challenge us. The people in your

world won’t always tell you if something’s troubling them. So it’s important

to consider who in your world might need to hear you ask, “are you OK?”
