Mental Healthcare Awareness and Education for Rural Community

Thre is a quote saying, “Your stuggles do not define you”. Instead, it could be a force of life, to make us stronger. As a part of HOPE worldwide Malaysia’s Mental Wellness Awareness Initiatives, we created the “From Struggled2Strength (S2S)” workshop to help our community to cope with stress and challenges in life with postive mental attitude. Last Sunday, a total of 2 HOPE worldwide volunteers travelled to Slim River to conduct the S2S workshop for an Orang Asli community (consists of 50 children, 16 teenagers and 80 adults).

The workshop consists of sessions that were conducted simultaneously for preschool children, teenagers and adults. The best moments were to see the smiling faces of the community. Our volunteers had done a good job building connection and engagement with the community, through being a good listeners to the community, helping them to express themselves, and at the same time, helping them to understand the benefits of having a positive mindset.

By the end of the S2S workshop, we distributed groeries and hygiene products sponsored by Lifebuoy to the community! The families and community leaders were so grateful for us. We look forward to come back again with more programs in 2024!

Inspire greater hope.
