AWARE


Prevention & Advocacy
Mental health is paramount to personal well-being, family relationships, and successful contributions to society. It is related to the development of societies and countries.
Mental, neurological, and substance use disorders are highly prevalent and burdensome worldwide. The violations of human rights directed towards people with these disorders compound the problem. 

AWARE makes a case for enhancing the commitment of the government, NGOs, private organizations, civil society, healthcare professionals and other stakeholders to change policy, practice and service delivery systems to ensure mental health needs and concerns receive the level of priority necessary to reduce the burden associated with mental and substance use disorders.

There should be no more excuses for marginalizing funding and delivery of mental health services. 


OBJECTIVES:

  • to reinforce the commitment of all stakeholders to increase the allocation of financial and human resources for care of mental and substance use disorders.
  • to develop and deliver preventive strategies for reducing the incidence and burden of mental health disorders
  • to achieve higher treatment coverage across the country  with key, evidence based interventions.
  • to establish productive partnerships across agencies
  • to facilitate the integration of mental health into primary health care; and
  • to strengthen human resources

Picture
AWARE has adopted five strategies that have been identified to be effective in prevention of mental health problems worldwide. These are:

1. Teaching prevention in schools
2. Reaching youths outside school
3. Reaching high risk groups
4. Building family bonds
5. Empowering communities
