Research indicates that between 20-30% of all outpatients seeking medical attention in both public and private institutions present mental illnesses. Therefore there is need to develop effective mental wellness care services. Through our mental health advocacy, we provide information to individuals, groups, families, organizations on how best to handle their lives when impacted by mental Illness. We also equip caregivers with skills on how to care for their family members and themselves. We offer an integrated approach to mental health care. In order to do this we enlist the assistance of different professionals. These include psychologists, psychotherapists, social workets, psychiatrists, community mental heath workers etc.

Family and peer support groups meetings are tools that help us to bringing the affected persons and their caregivers and loved ones together. This way, healing comes in a wholesome manner. We have monthly Support Group meetins at our offices in Ngong. Previously, we had FSGs in Ol Kalau, Nyahururu, Njambini, Mukurwini, Dol Dol, Karen, Engineer, Chuka among other places.

We organize awareness programs in forms of workshops for corporate and visiting institutions where our services are needed.

This is involves disseminating information gleaned from research and experience. We do this through mainstream media, social media, posters and leaflets walks sensitization talks and also targeted meetings with key authority figures in the community. We aim to ensure that communities know that help is available, where to get it and what is required from families to ensure success.

We facilitate and arrange counseling sessions for individuals and family units.

At grassroots level, clinics are organized at community centers, schools, churches hospitals etc and involve from first line medication and straightforward diagnosis of symptoms to in-depth workshops and trainings to improve cognitive functions and coping mechanism in participants. They also range from regular daily or weekly clinics (for medication related clinics) to planned on demand for training sessions.
