Today is our nation­al day of action when we remind Aus­tralians that every day is the day to ask, ​‘are you OK?’ and start a mean­ing­ful con­ver­sa­tion when­ev­er they spot the signs that some­one they care about might be strug­gling with life.

R U OK? has released resources, tips and ideas to help you dri­ve gen­uine change in your work­place, school and com­mu­ni­ty. Sign up via the form below to access the R U OK?Day 2022 resources.

A free pre­sen­ta­tion will be streamed online at mid­day (AEST) on R U OK?Day Thurs­day 8 Sep­tem­ber. You can reg­is­ter here to tune in to our nation­wide vir­tu­al event when R U OK? CEO, Kather­ine New­ton, and our spe­cial guests will share con­ver­sa­tion tips and per­son­al stories.
