Healing isn't a race. Every mental health journey is unique, and recovery takes time, support, and compassion. Through the #IMARISHA Initiative, supported by @comicrelief, we're challenging myths and promoting person-centered, community-based mental health care.

Mental health literacy helps people recognize symptoms early, reduce stigma, and seek support before conditions worsen. Read the policy brief on overcoming barriers to access mental health care in Kenya and learn how you can promote mental health literacy: shorturl.at/5Dz2X

Have you ever wondered how many persons with disabilities still struggle to access essential services? At a community outreach organized by the Muhoroni OPDs Hub, we promoted disability rights,inclusion,stigma reduction,economic empowerment,& access to social protection services.

Our interns and attachment students participated in a learning session at @InfoJOOTRH GBV Recovery Centre. They gained practical knowledge on GBV, survivor-centred care, and the roles of social workers, strengthening empathy, professionalism, and capacity to support survivors.

Mental health care shouldn’t depend on where you live. When services are concentrated in one place, people face long travel, delayed treatment, and unmet needs. Read the policy brief on improving access to mental health care in Kenya and take action: shorturl.at/5Dz2X

Education should never be limited by financial barriers. With support from @SegalFoundation, we presented a KES 504,875 cheque to Great Lakes University of Kisumu to support students most in need with tuition fee, strengthening access to education and student retention.

Recovery goes beyond medication. Therapy, supportive relationships, healthy coping strategies, and community care all matter. Through the IMARISHA Mental Health Integrated Initiative, supported by @comicrelief, we're expanding access to holistic mental health support in Kenya.

A cheque can move a project forward. But trust moves a leader forward.
