Yesterday was more than just a roundtable discussion ,it was a safe space for honest conversations, listening, reflection, and collaboration.

Young people courageously shared their experiences with mental health services, highlighting issues such as judgement, lack of youth friendliness, and feeling unheard in counseling spaces. Service providers also openly acknowledged the gaps within the system, including lack of sustainability, follow-up, training, and inclusion for people living with disabilities.

We truly appreciate all the service providers who showed up, listened with openness, and engaged in the conversation with honesty and willingness to improve services for young people. Your presence and acknowledgment of these realities matters more than you know. đź’š

What made the discussion powerful was not only identifying the challenges, but collectively exploring solutions:
✨ Accessible and reliable services
✨ Policy amendments
✨ Inclusive and youth-friendly spaces
✨ Making mental health services engaging, safe, and approachable
✨ Collaboration between young people and service providers

One thing became clear, young people do not want to be passive recipients of services but they want to be involved, heard, and empowered to advocate for mental health in their communities.

Thank you to every young person and stakeholder who contributed to this meaningful conversation. This is only the beginning of bridging the gap and creating systems that truly serve people with dignity, empathy, and care. đź’š

🧠 ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION

Bridging the Gap: Strengthening Mental Health Services Through Youth Voices

Mental health services cannot truly be strengthened without the voices of the young people they are meant to serve.

Too often, youth navigate systems that feel distant, misunderstood, or difficult to access — while service providers continue working to meet growing mental health needs within communities. This Round Table Discussion creates a space where both sides come to the same table to listen, engage, and co-create meaningful solutions.

🌱 A space for youth to share lived experiences, challenges, and real needs
🤝 A space for service providers to listen, understand, and collaborate
🧠 A space to bridge the gap and shape more accessible, responsive, and youth-friendly mental health services

This is more than just a conversation — it is a step toward changing how mental health conversations, services, and solutions are built within our communities.

If you are passionate about mental health, youth wellbeing, advocacy, and meaningful change, then this space is for you. Your voice and perspective matter.

Yesterday, we had amazing interactions with the masses at The Lifestyle and Culinary health expo at the MmaMasire Grounds in
G West.

It was a day of health and through our mental health pillar, we educated people about mental health through an interactive game of match the mental health term to the definition.

Attendees got to know more about our up coming work/activities throughout the month of May including the fact that we offer free counselling to youth for free at the centre.

People also enjoyed the board games we had set out in our stall as it was a way of us encouraging having some kind of fun helps with your mental health.

We appreciate each and everyone who swung by our stall and interacted with us. We hope to see you all again.
