BeyondNow
Suicide prevention
The aim of this safety planning app is to provide a platform for people to develop their own personalised safety plan on the app or website.
BeyondNow allows the user to develop a list of warning signs, coping strategies, reasons for living and ways to make their environment safe via either free-text entry, or by selecting from a range of suggestions. It also includes a “sharing” function in which a copy of the safety plan can be shared via email with important support people.
