Let's stay in touch!
With Inuka, we connect people online to a guide trained on proven Friendship Bench talk techniques. Now anyone can chat using our secure app, and take steps to address what’s bothering them.
Inuka will launch soon. Sign up for our newsletter to stay in the loop and be the first to hear about our latest adventures.
“ My dream is to make proven and simple solutions like the Friendship Bench available to people in need across the world. ”
