As the new school year gets underway, lobby group Stand Up For Jamaica (SUFJ) has expressed its willingness to assist the Ministries of Education and Health with managing mental health challenges among students.

Over the past few years, the Government has implemented several initiatives geared at addressing mental health problems.

These include increased resources in educational institutions, training counsellors and other school personnel in mental health literacy, promoting an anti-stigma campaign, and launching support services such as the U-Matter chatline and the New-Life helpline.

However, SUFJ notes that with several children suffering from various types of trauma and other mental challenges, more qualified persons must come forward to provide continued support to the Government.

SUFJ’s Executive Director, Maria Carla Gullotta told IRIE FM News that her lobby group which has long advocated for mentally ill people is willing to help.
