Initiatives
Each initiative we take on is to better the mental health and wellbeing of our country. These efforts are focused even more so on our impoverished communities.
Our first initiative will be: The Referral Program.
The referral program is geared towards making mental health services more accessible to Bahamian people. Through this program in conjunction with our in house mental health triage services we will direct individuals in need of mental health support to the correct community partners.
How?
We have a curated list of mental health practitioners within the community ready and able to take on clientele from our program. All services offered to our clients will be 100% covered by our program. This is inclusive of any medication, health care screenings such as blood work or imaging, and follow up appointments. This program is meant for individuals who would otherwise not be able to access these services to care for their mental health and wellbeing while prioritising it.
How long?
We will engage with our partners and host fundraising events over the next 5 months to raise funds for our organisation and our program. At minimum we would like to be able to support 6 individuals over a 6 month period at a time to reach their mental health and wellness goals. In the long run, we would like to support as many individuals as are in need for whatever duration of time is necessary for them to reach their treatment goals. In the future we intend on offering our services within this program in this way.
The Referral Program will be commencing on January 1st, 2024! Applications will be available here as of this date.
