MMHC’S PURPOSE
Embrace's Mobile Mental Health Clinic seeks to
address these challenges by providing essential
mental health consultations and raising awareness
across underserved regions in Lebanon. The mobile
clinic, supported by mental health professionals and
volunteers, will visit different communities throughout
Lebanon. The mobile clinic will offer free psychiatric
consultations, provide beneficiaries with necessary
medications, and refer them to the closest Primary
Health Care Centers (PHCCs). The presence of the
mobile unit aims to bridge gaps in accessing PHCCs
with integrated mental health services and expand
access to mental health care. The team will also
engage in outreach and awareness activities to break
down stigma and encourage help-seeking behaviors.
The project aims to achieve three main objectives:
- Empower thousands of individuals in across Lebanon with information on mental health and the availability of services through outreach and awareness activities.
- Provide psychiatric consultation to at least 756 individuals in the project locations, and refer them to PHCCs for follow-up care.
- Cover the cost of psychiatric medications for beneficiaries in need through collaboration with PHCCs and YMCA.
