Beyond Awareness: Truth Heals. Awareness is the first step, but understanding transforms lives. Myths about PTSD silence those who need help most. Healing begins when stigma is replaced with compassion. Join us in fostering understanding & support for mental health.

From Empowerment to Impact Strong mental health fuels empowerment. When refugees are supported, they lead, innovate, and inspire growth in classrooms, workplaces, and communities. How is your organization creating environments where resilience thrives?

Talking about PTSD matters, but awareness alone isn’t enough. The earlier we notice & act, with professional care & supportive communities, the greater the chance of real healing. Early care restores strength, purpose, & connection. How is your team turning awareness into action?

Anxiety doesn’t always announce itself, but its impact is felt everywhere: in performance, relationships, & quiet moments people rarely talk about. Watch the presentation, notice the signs, & create spaces where people thrive. How can your organization turn awareness into action?

On 6 September 2025, we trained front desk personnel from different refugee-led organizations on trauma-informed care & referral pathways. They are more than greeters, they’re often a first lifeline. Led by @Birah_sharon, they turned tasks into trust, support & hope for refugees.

Strategic Vision: Scaling Impact Together Growth and resilience don’t happen in isolation. Anger cycles affect workplace culture & community. Organizations integrating emotional literacy reduce conflict and foster thriving spaces. How could your organization extend this impact?

Anger isn’t always what it seems. Our therapist shows in this video how managing anger solves the real problem. For refugee women, it means reclaiming control, protecting dignity, & building peaceful families Watch & reflect: what could change if anger was met with understanding.

When anger takes over, it ripples beyond one person into families, teams & communities. In refugee settings, unmanaged stress fuels isolation & broken trust. This isn’t just a refugee reality it mirrors every team, organization & society. How do you turn stress into resilience?

Good mental health is built through small daily habits. When one person commits, a life changes. When organizations embrace them, whole communities grow stronger. Watch our video and join us in rethinking how small actions can create collective change.
