NELO DREAMS FOUNDATION and RANGERS INTERNATIONAL FC FOUNDATION Partner for Mental Health Outreach
NELO DREAMS FOUNDATION and RANGERS INTERNATIONAL FC FOUNDATION partnered to conduct a mental health exercise at Nathaniel Gift School, Ogun State. The session targeted students in Primary 4–6, JSS 1–3, and SS 1–2.
Key Highlights: - Childhood Trauma: Students were educated on what childhood trauma is and how it can affect a child's mental health and well-being. - Signs & Effects: We also covered the symptoms and signs of childhood trauma, and its potential effects on development and behavior. - Prevention & Support: Finally, students learned how trauma can impact mental health and practical ways to prevent mental stress in both children and adults.
Mental health is the foundation of a stable society.
1. Healthy Minds, Healthy Nation: A society thrives when its people can think clearly, work productively, and relate well.
2. Reduces Crime & Violence: Many conflicts, abuse, and crimes are linked to unmanaged trauma, stress, anger and poor emotional regulation. Good mental health builds self-control.
3. Strong Families: Mentally healthy parents raise emotionally stable children. It breaks the cycle of abuse and neglect.
4. Productivity & Economy: Depression and anxiety are leading causes of lost productivity. A mentally healthy workforce drives growth.
5. Reduces Stigma & Suicide: When society understands mental health, people seek help early instead of suffering in silence. This saves lives.
6. Builds Resilience: Communities with SEL skills cope better with hardship, loss, and change.
7. Protects the Future: Children with good Social-Emotional Learning become responsible adults and leaders.
> There is no health without mental health. A nation that protects the mind, protects its future.
