Mission statement

Every person has access to someone who is willing, able, and ready to provide basic mental health care for them.


Professional services for mental health care is not accessible to a wide number of Filipinos. There is also a lack of knowledge on how to help people in times of mental distress, and formal education for this is inaccessible to an ordinary person.

Every person has access to someone who is willing, able, and ready to provide basic mental health care for them.

We act as a platform where ordinary citizens who want to champion better mental health practices in their communities can work with the available expertise and resources on mental wellbeing.

By 2025, we aim to have 10,000 trained and engaged volunteers who can apply essential psychosocial support to their communities and advocate ways to strengthen mental resilience and wellness.
