At ReachOut we are guided by a clear, simple ambition – helping young people feel better.
We’re guided by a clear vision – better mental health and wellbeing for all young people. Anonymous and confidential, ReachOut is a safe place where young people can openly express themselves, get a deeper understanding and perspective on what’s happening in their lives, connect with people who will provide judgement-free support, and build the resilience to manage their challenges now and in the future. Designed with – and specifically for – young people, ReachOut is 100% online, anonymous and confidential, and lets young people connect on their terms.
More than 50% of young people turn to the internet for help when going through a tough time. So, we’ve created a place where young people can safely and openly express themselves. Where they can build a better understanding and perspective about what’s happening in their lives, connect with people who will provide support without judgement, and build the resilience to manage their challenges now and in the future.
From one-to-one peer support, to moderated online communities, as well as tips, stories and resources, ReachOut offers a wide range of support options that allow young people to engage in the ways they want to, when they want to.
And because we know that we’re not alone in our ambition to help young people feel better, we support their supporters – parents and carers and schools – with valuable information, resources and advice to help them better understand the young people in their lives and to actively play a role in their wellbeing.
Our values are part of what makes working at ReachOut unique.
