About Us
Mind Us is a new mental health project that supports US - young people from the Global Majority on OUR journey in understanding OUR mental health.
What Mind Us is about
The project focuses on guiding us on how to deal with mental health issues, problems with peers and family, relationships and processing emotions. Mind Us teaches us how to build healthy relationships and shows us how to understand and express our feelings in a creative way.
Mind Us is a friendly and safe space where we can talk about our feelings and talk to Youth Workers on regular basis. It is a platform led by us to help each other to be happy.
We meet twice per week – on Tuesday and Thursday. Each session focuses on different emotions, mental health issues or problems. We created a space without boundaries where we can open up and speak freely about things that bother us. By working with professionals who understand us, we find ways to tackle these problems and help each other. Additionally, we regularly meet with different artists who teach us how art can help us to deal with our mental health.
