We spent this week talking about coping, vulnerability, and breaking the silence, but real change doesn’t take a week. It takes months and years of intentional practice. Let this campaign be a starter for the change we want to see. #Checkonhimtoday #Mensmentalhealthawareness

Masculinity should never mean hiding your emotions. Real men cry. Real men feel. Real men ask for help. Real men heal. Masculinity does not mean silence. It does not mean suffering alone. It does not mean pretending you’re fine. #Checkonhimtoday #MensMentalHealthAwareness

Here are a few ways you can show him you care and he stil matters. Half the time, it’s the small, intentional things that remind a man he’s not carrying everything alone. What would you add? #Checkonhimtoday #MensMentalHealthAwareness

We need to start talking about the quiet battles men face, the pressure to β€˜be strong,’ and how they struggle in silence. What did we miss? Share an opinion or a reality about men’s mental health that people don’t talk about enough. #Checkonhimtoday #Mensmentalhealthawareness

These may be hard truths, but they’re still the truth. Men are carrying stress from work, money, family, expectations, yet their mental health is often pushed aside. It gets downplayed, or ignored and that shouldn’t be the case. #Checkonhimtoday #MensMentalHealthAwareness

These numbers are not just statistics, they are reminders that men need safe spaces, support, and compassion just as much as anyone else. 2/2

This week, as part of Men’s Health Awareness Month, we’re encouraging everyone to pay attention, reach out, and genuinely check in. Because his mental health matters. Because silence should not be a burden he carries alone. πŸ’™ #CheckOnHimToday #MensMentalHealthAwareness 1/2

The theme: "Rethinking Accountability in Sexual Abuse Cases in Ghanaian Schools." We will discuss what accountability should look like, what systems are failing, and how we can reimagine protection for students in our educational spaces.

Schools are meant to be safe, but many cases of sexual abuse are still mishandled or dismissed in silence. Accountability is a moral obligation and not just a policy requirement. This Saturday, we are hosting the Veronica's Veil Webinar.

Every child, boy or girl, deserves protection, not pity. Sexual abuse is not a gendered tragedy; it's a national failure. From classrooms to football fields, accountability must be non-negotiable Be part of the conversation Nov 15 4-6PM GMT #AccountabilityNow #JusticeForRansford
