ARE THEY TRIPLE OK?

Group of Emergency Services and R U OK? Sign

We're always here to help.

Let's make sure we help each other and ask R U OK?


‘Are They Triple OK?’ is an R U OK? campaign that aims to increase levels of peer and social support for police and emergency services workers nationwide. The campaign provides tips and resources to promote life changing conversations with police and emergency services workers at home and in the workplace to encourage early intervention and help-seeking.


The campaign has been developed in response to Beyond Blue’s nationwide
Answering the Call study that found police and emergency services personnel report suicidal thoughts more than twice as often as adults in the general population.  However, personnel with higher levels of social support and resilience reported lower levels of suicidal thoughts and behaviours.


Our NEW resources feature real stories from those working in the emergency services and demonstrate how family, friends and colleagues can look beyond the uniform and start meaningful R U OK? conversations both at home and in the workplace.

'Are They Triple OK?’ provides free digital and printable resources. Resources include a conversation guide and personal stories from police and emergency services staff and volunteers that demonstrate the life changing impact of an R U OK? conversation. 


The campaign is funded by the PNI Foundation.


The resources can help  current and former police and emergency services workers and volunteers and their family and friends start a conversation that could change a life.
