The South Africa country office in partnership with Outreach Foundation trained social workers on how to better support the PSS needs for forcibly displaced #Children and #Youth. The training was successful with the great support of Terre des hommes Deutschland.

Check up on your friends and family. Many times, all people need is a shoulder to cry on and/or an ear to listen. Support and encourage them if they are being treated for any mental problems. #MHAM2023 #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth

Social worker and REPSSI South Africa community facilitator Nancy Ndlovu: “I believe that children are now confident to speak their minds and be able to differentiate between violence and love. And be able to report things that they are not comfortable with in their lives.” #programmimpact

One of the best ways to celebrate Mental Health Awareness Month is by talking about it with your peers. The more you talk about it, the more normalized it will become.

This is one of the aims of the month as the stigma attached to mental health has led to countless delays in treatment and research on the matter. #MHAM2023 #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth

The government must provide in schools comprehensive sex education for children and adults because it is an important starting point for avoiding grooming and abuse. #SAChildProtectionWeek
