Uprise is like a personal trainer for your mental wellbeing, helping you build resilience, emotional intelligence, and a healthier mood. It offers a variety of evidence-based programs and practical strategies designed to improve your mental fitness. As a UNSW staff member, you have access to Uprise as an additional support service, complementing our Employee Assistance Program (EAP) with Benestar. 

The Uprise platform features a library of self-paced mental health modules.  

Currently, the library includes 32 modules covering a wide range of topics from coronavirus anxiety and better sleep to pain and fatigue and manager training. You can dip in and out of these modules whenever it suits your schedule. 

Each module is made up of short lessons, typically ranging from 1 to 5 minutes in length, making it easy to fit into your day.

One of the features of the Uprise program is that it helps you to keep track of your wellbeing over time, with a short wellbeing quiz that you can do whenever you like to see how you're going. If your score on the Wellbeing check is particularly low, you won't be left without support. One of the Uprise team members will call you within 24 hours to see if you are ok, and whether you need further support.
