332 Mental Health NGOs/user-organizations around the World:

Attention: Due to time constraints, I was forced to stop updating this list by the end of 2016. The information will be outdated soon. Sorry, I hope you will find your information elsewhere on the internet.

Every week in2mentalhealth has been highlighting one mental health NGO/user-organization on the in2mentalhealth Facebook page. All the big/small/nearby/faraway organizations highlighted were listed below in a random order. Each with own challenges and accomplishments.

    Please I am a psychiatric nurse in Ghana, west Africa. I ‘ve worked with these patients in a psychiatric institution for the past few years now.
    I realized the plight of these patients in terms of inadequate funding from the government resulting in insufficient dietary, poor housing, lack of recreational resources.
    I desire to open an NGO that will help at least take care of the basic needs of these patients.
    Also to bring in other mentally sick patients wandering about in the community which the government is unable to bring in for an institutional care.
    Thanks.
    Please could you help how I could go about them.

    I’m a community mental health officer trained from the kentampo project, I happen to work in a very rural community in Ghana, West Africa. Is sad to see that people with mental illness and epilepsy don’t even no that, the health facilities can help in providing them with medication to assist their condition. I will like to use this opportunity to ask an NGO assistance to advocate for mental illness in the rural areas

    CAPS provides psychosocial interventions at both individual and organizational levels, reinforcing its belief in holistic care.
    Organizational Intervention: This incliudes the provision of psychosocial services through community-wide sensitizations on relevant psychosocial issues and trainings with community stakeholders (such as health-care providers, police, teachers, clergy) and partners in development on understanding and preventing mental health issues and related human right abuses.
    CAPS also works with individual community structures to find culturally relevant ways of healing through traditional ceremony or ritual, which has been shown to aid in psychosocial recovery. Advocacy is also an integral component of CAPS intervention strategy. Participatory advocacy is used to ensure collaborative change and ownership within the community.
    Interpersonal Intervention: At an interpersonal level, CAPS provides Psychosocial counseling through, individual, family and group counseling sessions. This process is comprehensively monitored through clinical intakes, assessments, follow-up assessments and home visitation. The spectrum of clients and client issues is broad, including such issues as trauma, grief and loss, job stress, parenting issues, torture, family disagreements, prisoners, commercial sex workers, and school children.

    List the different organisations properly. Viz: Countries alphabetically and activity wise etc and also when some logs into the list it should not go to the beginning and rather keep the position it was stopped in the intervening process while some goes into the list.

    I am a Registered Mental Health Nurse based in the UK. I trained in the UK and have worked in various mental health settings across both statutory and private services. The idea friendship benches in Zimbabwe sounds resounding against a background of limited funding. Dixon Chibanda sounds up to speed with the programme and it is impressive but these grandmothers need people to talk to when dealing with complex mental health cases. Dixon should procure additional funding to train Mental health professionals help to work with these dediacted women. I am would be happy to be co-opted into this life saving programme Zimbabwean.
