Children’s Mental Health Campaign
The Children’s Mental Health Campaign is designed to raise awareness about the mental health challenges that children face and to provide families with the resources needed to support their children’s mental well-being. This project aims to address the stigma around mental health issues in children and offer interventions that promote early diagnosis and effective treatment.
Our campaign combines educational outreach with direct mental health services. We work closely with schools, pediatricians, and community organisations to ensure that families have access to the support they need.
Key Components:
- Workshops for Parents and Teachers:
- Free educational workshops to help parents and teachers recognise early signs of mental health challenges in children, including anxiety, ADHD, and depression.
- Strategies for supporting children through emotional regulation techniques, positive reinforcement, and creating a supportive environment at home and in the classroom.
- Free Child Counselling Sessions:
- One-on-one therapy sessions with licensed child psychologists available to children identified as at risk.
- Group therapy sessions focused on social skills development and emotional expression.
- Family therapy sessions to help parents support their children’s mental health.
