Delivering community programs to improve the mental health of Australians.
Community is at the heart of who we are. Research shows over and over that social connections and relationships improve mental health and can protect against suicide. Barbarians Group provides programs and initiatives that build strong communities, where people feel connected, supported, and armed with the skills needed, in whatever mental health difficulties they face.
We support our community in a variety of ways, but you may notice many of our initiatives are focused on men's mental health. Men often share the good times with their mates, but then try to fight the tough stuff alone. We know mental health outcomes are far better when extra support is called in. This is why we have a special focus on bridging this gap - providing support, events, and workshops for men to help them not only show up for their mates, but to show up for themselves.
Together, as a community, we can move mountains.
Our initiatives and programs change from time to time, so please check back regularly. Alternatively, if you have an initiative we can help with, please Contact Us.
