our community
A large part of what we do is getting involved with a range of different communities. If you think your community may benefit, please reach out.
THE MAN ENOUGH MOVEMENT
ENCOURAGING MEN TO OPEN UP
Globally, a man dies by suicide every minute. In Australia, suicide is the single biggest killer in men aged 15 – 44. Inspired by these heart-breaking statistics, The Man Enough Movement was developed to give men the skills and tools to support them through life’s challenges. Are you man enough to ask for help or share your story?
Youth Suicide Prevention
SAVING YOUTH WITH HAPPINESS.
Suicide is the leading cause of death with young people aged 15-24 and for every suicide, there are on average up to 200 suicide attempts. With young Australians more likely to take their own life, youth suicide affects families every day in Australia.
These devastating facts saw us develop an education focused platform (EdU) for children, teens and parents, to help combat areas of unhappiness for young people, by learning to be a light for them, by providing skills to overcome those dark periods.

HAPPINESS FOR CHILDREN
Mental health and happiness education are crucial for children. We work with schools through facilitating programs that talk through the tools and practices to build happier children.Building strategies for stress, unhappiness, resilience and self-development in the early stages of a child’s life, can make a huge difference to their future happiness.
Remote & Regional Town Support
HAPPINESS FOR REMOTE AND REGIONAL TOWNS.
Isolation and a loss of connection often comes with living or working in a remote or regional town, but it can be detrimental to mental health. With higher statistics of suicide and less access to support, it’s crucial for workshops and online programs to be available to remote and regional communities. We work with remote and regional towns, providing specialised happiness programs for FIFO workers.

SPREADING SMILES WITH ACTS OF KINDNESS.
Spreading smiles can be as simple as seeing someone without a smile, and giving them yours. Putting a smile on someone’s face can spread happiness like wildfire – That’s why at Happiness Co, we spend time spreading smiles through the community. With small acts of kindness we aim to create a ripple effect in the community.
Community Ambassadors
THE HEART AND SOUL OF HAPPINESS CO.
At the heart and soul of our programs are our incredible Community Ambassadors who volunteer their time to spread happiness.
With a range of lived experiences from domestic violence, to substance abuse, these wonderful Ambassadors have overcome their challenges and now help others do the same. Our community is stronger because of them, and we would not achieve what we do without them.
