Describe the challenge you want to address:
The challenge I see in my community is lack of support for parents who are coping with family members with mental health issues. Parents are overwhelmed.
What is the solution to the challenge?
More support can be given via education and counseling support for parents, caregivers, etc. (Series of psychoeducation sessions and support groups for parents. Participants recruited via school-based counselors and other staff as well as other community outreach efforts.)
