Power Plus Foundation’s sports-based innovation integrates mental health education into football coaching sessions, using the popularity of football to engage youth in discussions about mental well-being. Trained youth facilitators will lead sessions to challenge stigma, empower youth, and improve care-seeking behaviors, while fostering resilience. The project aims to combat stigma, enhance quality of life, and bridge the gap in mental health support by raising awareness and encouraging positive attitudes toward mental health.
