Impact

Informed by a public health approach to mental health and the World Health Organization’s Social Determinants of Health model, ReachOut.com will cultivate life-affirming, protective factors that build resilience in young people, including:

• Positive relationships with peers, family, and other adults
• Meaningful participation
• Knowledge that enhances confidence
• Life and social skills, including problem solving, optimistic thinking, and mutual responsibility
• Safe and supportive environments for developing and maintaining healthy communities

Inspire Ireland will integrate ReachOut.com into existing community-based services and supports, such as Headstrong’s Jigsaw programme, and develop tools for educators and mental health professionals.
