What is Kaan Pete Roi?

Kaan Pete Roi (KPR) is Bangladesh’s first and only emotional support and suicide prevention helpline, staffed by trained volunteers, which people can call to receive immediate support. The mission of the helpline is to alleviate feelings of despair, isolation, distress through compassionate, open-minded listening. KPR opened its lines on April 28, 2013 and has operated uninterrupted since, celebrating more than a decade of supporting those in distress in 2023. During and after the COVID-19 pandemic, KPR's operations have been supported by the SAJIDA Foundation, allowing immense growth and an expansion of the helpline to be available to callers for 12 hours every day.

Why is Kaan Pete Roi Necessary?

Crisis helplines are an established method of suicide prevention globally. Given that such telephone helplines are accessible during multiple points along the path to suicidal behavior and that they can provide an opportunity for people to access help when other resources might be unavailable, they play a prominent role in suicide prevention around the world. Emerging research has demonstrated the effectiveness of these services, and KPR has received more than fifty-six thousand calls even with extremely limited outreach.
