On the 12th of December, our MINDCARE CONNECT Ambassadors came together for a workshop on Pyschosocial first Aid and Peer Supporting.The workshop educated them on common psychiatric illnesses, basic counselling skills, and what to do in an emergency.
The vision of Mindcare Connect is to be a safe community for young adults to discuss openly and provide access to mental health and well beingthe Mission of Mindcare Connect is to bridge the gap between young people seeking help and professionals.
This is important, as in educating people about mental health we must also provide solutions to mental health problems and create access easy to professionals. It was a successful workshop.
