About HelpNet
Technology that works upstream — not just downstream.
The world is facing seemingly insurmountable challenges in mental health, wellbeing, and suicide risk. At HelpNet we are driven by absolute conviction that organisations and individuals at every level can play a significant role in initiating positive change.
Our mission
Working upstream, not downstream.
HelpNet recognises that the reactive approach to issues around mental health and suicide risk must change if we are to see significant community transformation. This outdated method is cost-prohibitive, ineffective, and akin to trying to stop the tide with a bucket.
Our mission is not just to increase awareness of suicide risks and mental health challenges — it is to work upstream, addressing the underlying contributing factors that are causative in the first place.
HelpNet programs are designed to provide invaluable individual and community insights that support more meaningful and informed action. They are designed to empower individuals, organisations, cities, and even nations with the knowledge to recognise vulnerabilities in suicide safety and build cultures that more effectively enhance mental health.
By integrating mental health awareness into an unobtrusive online platform, we strive to create an environment where people feel supported and encouraged to seek help when needed.
“We strive to support and enhance individual wellbeing and global awareness of mental health — because every life matters, and data-driven action is how we make that real.”
