ABOUT IDENTIFYD
What is Identifyd?
In this project, our aim is to create a tool to identify young people who are at risk of experiencing long‑term or repeated depression. This tool is called a ‘risk calculator’. The tool will consider a wide range of aspects of a young person’s life, including clinical, cognitive, psychological, and social factors that are linked to depression.

About Orygen
We believe that all young people deserve to grow into adulthood with optimal mental health. Everything we do is focused on that outcome.
Most mental health disorders begin between the early teens to the mid-20s. One in five young people will have experienced a depressive episode by the time they turn 18. We believe in treating early and focusing on recovery. Pioneering reform to deliver real-world practical solutions. Never settling for anything less than what young people need and deserve.
Our research is world-leading, impactful and creates change. Working directly with young people, their families and friends, we pioneer new, positive approaches to the prevention and treatment of mental disorders.
We advocate. We make sure that policy makers understand the need and cost of mental ill-health in young people.
We educate. We use our research and evidence-based practice to develop innovative training programs and resources.
Our goal? To see young people with mental ill-health getting well and staying well. Now that’s a revolution in mind.
