To develop outreach program to promote existing mental health services, train community members and volunteers in mental health first aid, create opportunities for volunteering at mental health clinics or services, and provide parent workshops on child development in order to see and understand child development milestones and support their child earlier.
What is the problem your idea aims to address?
I see many people in the community who are suffering mental illness. It is resulting in using drugs. Mental Illness is affecting people 3 years old to adulthood. We need to open more drugs abuse sponor/support services and mental health crisis programs.
