Immediate, Compassionate Support When It’s Needed Most

The Help Now section of Break the Silence ensures that anyone experiencing a mental-health crisis can reach critical support quickly and privately.
This feature was built to remove friction and save time in moments when every second matters.

What Users See & Can Do

• One-Tap Emergency Call
  A prominent call button connects users directly to 24/7 crisis helplines such as Lifeline or emergency services (e.g. triple zero/000).
  There is no need to navigate multiple screens—help is literally one touch away.
• Trusted Expert Directory
  Users can explore a curated list of specialists across key mental-health areas:
  Depression, Anxiety, Self-Esteem, Stress Management, Trauma & PTSD, Relationship Issues, Grief & Loss, and more.
  Each category links to professionals and resources that meet high standards for reliability and confidentiality.
• Always Available
  The feature operates around the clock, 7 days a week, ensuring that immediate assistance is accessible anytime, anywhere.

Designed for Employees & Employers

• For Individuals / Employees
  Whether at work, home, or traveling, anyone can discreetly reach help without alerting colleagues or supervisors.
  The design respects privacy and promotes confidence in seeking support.
• For Employers & HR Teams
  By providing this feature as part of an organizational wellness program, companies demonstrate genuine care for staff safety and mental health.
  It reinforces a culture where well-being is prioritized as highly as productivity.

Safety, Privacy, and Trust

Break the Silence never stores personal crisis details and never shares call information with employers or third parties.
All connections—whether to hotlines or expert resources—are end-to-end secure, allowing users to seek help without fear of exposure.

Why It Matters

In a crisis, finding the right number or searching the web can feel impossible.
By putting lifesaving support in a single, beautifully simple interface, Help Now ensures that nobody is alone when facing overwhelming stress, anxiety, or danger.
