A trained teacher can spot the signs of school-based substance use and mental health challenges and intervene in time.
Day 1 kicked off with power and purpose as educators stepped into a transformative training workshop.
We are participating in the East African Mental Health Summit 2026.
Mental health affects us all and each positive step matters.

🏆 Honoured to receive the Youth Impact Mental Health Award at the 5th Keturah Mental Health Awards 2026 at Sheraton Hotel, in recognition of outstanding impact in transforming lives of young peope through mental health work.
The mental health of young people is central to their ability to thrive. We need to create supportive environments where they feel heard, can seek help without stigma and are empowered to reach their full potential. This is the work I remain committed to.
Thank you to the organisers @MMyjourney and everyone who has supported me in this journey. This recognition strengthens my resolve to keep serving.

Not every wound is visible.
Not every battle is spoken about. Yet every person deserves the chance to be heard, supported, and treated with dignity.
This World Mental Health Day, let us create spaces where lived experiences are valued.

Mental health shapes how we think, connect, cope, and grow. Yet too many people continue to struggle behind smiles, silence, and stigma.
This year's theme, "Lived Experiences Heard: Real Voices, Real Change," reminds us that meaningful change begins when people feel safe enough to share their stories and know they will be met with understanding.
Today, I renew my commitment to supporting mental health by helping create safe, supportive environments where young people can thrive, discover their strengths, and reach their full potential.
Real change begins when people feel safe enough to speak and confident enough to seek support. May we build a world where every voice is heard, every struggle is met with compassion, and every person knows they matter.

Happening now.
Attending the 5th Keturah Mental Health Awards 2026 at Sheraton Hotel on the theme: Holding mothers while holding the world.
As we celebrate World mental health day , i have been reminded about the mental wellbeing of mothers. Most of them struggle in silence. We also need to intentionally invest in their wellbeing

Mental health is not a privilege. It is not something reserved for a few. It is a basic #human right.
Every person deserves #access to mental health information, quality care, support, dignity, and the opportunity to live a life that promotes well-being. No one should be denied help because of stigma, discrimination, cost, or lack of services.
As we continue to advocate for mental health, let us remember that protecting mental health is not only a healthcare issue, it is a matter of human rights.
Everyone deserves the chance to be heard, supported, and cared for.

Teachers are at the frontline of student mental health. 📚💙
Long before professional counselors step in, educators are often the first to notice when a student is quietly struggling, withdrawing, or carrying an invisible heavy load.

Boundaries can be an act of love. 🤍
Kindness to yourself helps you keep showing up with care, honesty, and strength. You are allowed to rest—because caregivers deserve kindness, too. Supporting a loved one is heavy work; your care matters just as much.

Recovery is rarely a solitary journey. Behind every milestone is a network of understanding, patience, and love.
With family support, healing can truly begin and continue.
Let's break the stigma and build supportive spaces for those we love.

A supportive caregiver can be a powerful anchor in recovery from substance use disorders 💚
Walking this path takes an incredible emotional toll, and these dedicated caregivers deserve support too.
