This program entails the training of volunteers and allies on the basic knowledge of mental health, how to communicate with persons with lived experience. We coach peer educators on how to champion mental health wellness in their immediate environment.
As part of PEMH, our trained peer educators visit different communities and local governments in Nigeria to educate the youths and residents on mental health, eradicate the stigma and shame that surrounds mental health as well as ways to get the help they need, and deserve.
