Meet Maria….
A survivor of domestic violence in a close-knit community where seeking mental health support was stigmatized. Across Ummah one-on-one online multilingual platform became Maria's lifeline, offering a safe space to connect and express herself in her native language, making the counselling sessions more effective with qualified counsellors who understood the cultural nuances of her experience.
Through one-on-one counselling sessions, Maria found solace in sharing her concerns privately, breaking free from the isolation imposed by societal norms.
This fostered a sense of community among individuals to socialise, reducing stigma not only empowered Maria to seek help but also inspired her to become an advocate within her community.
The project's continuous monitoring and evaluation allowed Maria to improve her mental health and trained as mental first aider. She is now helping others to access the vital mental health support they deserve.
Maria's story illustrates how Across Ummah is leading in bridging gaps in accessing the best support, and transformative impacts.
