UrHere builds awareness of supports available to young people in times of increased stress, suicide risk and isolation.
It’s about young people knowing what is available in their community when they need support, and it’s about making connections and knowing how to support one another during times of worry and distress.
No matter where you’re from, your age, your ethnicity, or your experience, there are people out there going through something similar. UrHere is an opportunity for people to share their experiences and in turn help others.
