Who we are
We are here to listen, without judgement and to advocate for equal opportunities for mental wellbeing. We are here for you.
We are a national charity providing all Australians experiencing emotional distress with access to 24 hour crisis support and suicide prevention services. We are committed to empowering Australians to be suicide-safe through connection, compassion and hope.
We do this by...

Our network of 41 centres includes 10,000 volunteers, including 3,500 Crisis Supporters and 1,000 employees, all dedicated to ensuring no person in Australia has to face their darkest moments alone. Our telephone, text, and online crisis support services receive over 1 million contacts a year. Our training programs build community skills and educate thousands of people to be suicide safe, while our Research Foundation creates new knowledge, as well as engaging in public education, awareness building and advocacy in relation to suicide prevention.
