R U OK?

8 Sep 2021 by KFNC Secretary

Tomorrow is R U OK? Day, a reminder to start a conversation that could change a life – not just tomorrow, but any day it’s needed.

This year’s message is: Are they really OK? Ask them today.

Do you know how the people in your world are really going?

Life’s ups and downs happen to all of us. So chances are someone you know might be struggling. Your genuine support can make a difference whatever they are facing, big or small.

So, don’t wait until someone’s visibly distressed or in crisis. Make a moment meaningful and ask them how they’re really going.

Are they really OK? Ask them today. Your conversation could change a life.
The conversation guide contains tips to help you talk to the people in your world about how they’re really going. Because when we genuinely ask, “are you OK?” and are prepared to talk to them about how they’re feeling and what’s going on in their life we can help someone who might be struggling to feel connected and supported, long before they’re in crisis.

Don’t forget to use these four steps tomorrow and every day to have a conversation that could change a life:
1. Ask R U OK?
2. Listen
3. Encourage action
4. Check in

Learn how to ask, and what to say if someone says they aren’t OK.
