R U OK? DAY, 9TH SEPTEMER
R U OK? is an Australian non-profit suicide prevention organisation founded by Gavin Larkin in 2009.
It revolves around the slogan "R U OK?" (are you okay?) and advocates for people to have conversations with others. The organisation has a dedicated day held annually on the second Thursday of September, which encourages Australians to connect with people who have emotional insecurity, to address social isolation and promote community cohesiveness.
