Beyond Blue

Beyond Blue works to raise awareness of depression, anxiety and suicide prevention, reduce the stigma surrounding these issues and to encourage people to seek support when they need it.

We are one of Australia’s most well-known and visited mental health organisation, focused on supporting people affected by anxiety, depression and suicide.

Through strong partnerships with academics, governments, non-government, corporate, service providers and the community, Beyond Blue promotes good mental health across a range of population groups and places in which people live, learn, work and play. Our work in different communities and settings is detailed below and provides information on our programs, research and resources.

We work with the community to improve mental health and prevent suicide, so that all people in Australia can achieve their best possible mental health.

• Promoting mental health and wellbeing so people have greater knowledge, feel safe to talk openly about their issues and are supported to ask for help when they need to.

• Being a trusted source of information, advice and support so we can all better understand how to maintain our mental health and take steps to recover from mental health conditions.

• Working together to prevent suicide by playing a lead role in the national effort to prevent suicide through research, information, advice and support, and advocacy.

We ensure the community is at the heart of everything we do. Our success is dependent on our deep commitment to actively listen to, understand, partner with and respond to community experience and needs. By learning from and working with the community, Beyond Blue can better reach and support people who need us, and adapt to the evolving mental health needs of people living in Australia.
