Supporting mental wellness
Sunday, June 27, 2021
PRIOR to the novel coronavirus pandemic, it was accepted that our pool of mental health resources was, at best, inadequate. However, the anxiety and stress that accompanied the infectious disease will now require the implementation of innovative strategies in order for resources to catch up with the galloping demand for support.
Teletherapy has expanded the reach of service providers, but it is still not enough.
Two charities — Choose Life International (CLI) and Love Changes Lives (LCL) — now stand at the ready with high-impact programmes that have the potential to bolster community care in a way that could assist people who are facing mental health challenges. Both organisations, which recently passed the Jamaica Social Stock Exchange's (JSSE) rigorous screening process and have been selected for the its fund-raising platform, have been delivering tailored psychological and counselling services for more than 15 years combined.
