Mental Health First

How it started?

Mental health is a subject riddled with stigma, sensitive issues and concerns. The discrimination caused by stigma can only be eradicated through continuous efforts to create awareness.

This will encourage acceptance, and help those suffering from mental illnesses to gain freedom. We hope to reinforce the fact that most concerns are treatable, just like any other medical condition.

In order to empower professionals, teachers, parents and families of the community, we, at Mpower, work towards creating a body of knowledge, expertise and specialists in the field of mental health & providing those in need with

Although mental illness is just as common as physical illness, it is surrounded by shame, stigma and fear which isolates people when they need support the most. So many of our friends and family are having to suffer in silence.

Awareness of and support for those affected by mental health issues needs to be a priority. Everyone deserves a happy and wholesome life. Mpower is a fight for equality.

I want everyone with a mental illness to be understood and treated just like any other illness is treated. Great things can be achieved, if we all worked together to #StampOutStigma.

Mission

Mpower strives to change public perception by creating awareness, fostering education, advocating prevention & providing world-class holistic mental health services, regardless of age, gender, and socio-economic boundaries.

Vision

A stigma-free world where individuals with mental health concerns can lead meaningful & productive lives with respect & dignity.
