To break the stigma around mental illness in our communities, we recognize the importance of education and access to information. We believe that gaining knowledge about mental health is powerful, so we publish about various mental illnesses, coping strategies, and more. In this way, we get to equip ourselves and our community members with the information that will help address mental illness in the right way.
We embrace the power of stories to connect us and remind us of our shared humanity. In our blog series, we publish articles from different Project AKILI writers who share their experiences and show us that it is possible to overcome mental illness and live a healthy, successful life.

donateMental illness is very common, and it is rarely addressed in the proper way. We want to make sure that we help as many people as we can: this is through providing the information needed, and ensuring that anyone who is struggling and contacts us is able to get access to mental health care. As our organization grows, we are partnering with mental health professionals in Nairobi, and organisations to ensure that everyone can can access the professional help they need.
