- 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.)
