counseling services across the board
Mental health amongst the youth and adults alike in lesser privileged communities is of paramount importance. Unfortunately, due to financial constraints as well as the stigma attached to “seeking help”, most people find themselves unable to access these essential services. ForestChild, aims to breach this gap and bring these essential services to those who need it. We are always encouraging professionals within the counselling services field be it from government or NGO’S to give of their time to assist in helping to better communities.
