🌍 WORLD SU***DE PREVENTION DAY | SEPTEMBER 10
Today, we stand together and remember one powerful truth: Every life matters.
In Mwihoko Ward, we have painfully lost about six people to su***de, including young people and young women in their 20s whose lives ended far too soon. We cannot continue losing our youth to silence, hopelessness and untreated mental health struggles.
As we mark World Su***de Prevention Day, I strongly recommend that both the County Government and National Government invest in accessible mental health and rehabilitation centres at constituency level—safe spaces where anyone can simply walk in, without fear of judgment or stigma, and receive professional help.
These centres should have qualified psychologists, psychiatrists, counsellors, mental health nurses, social workers and addiction and rehabilitation specialists to provide proper care, counselling, treatment and recovery support.
Mental health services should not only be available when someone can afford them. Help should be accessible before it is too late.
Let us talk. Let us listen. Let us invest in professional help. Our young people need hope, safe spaces and support.
You are not alone. Your life matters. Your story is not over. Together, we can prevent su***de. 💚
