Advocacy

“Advocacy is an important means of raising awareness on mental health issues and ensuring that mental health is on the national agenda of governments. Advocacy can lead to improvements in policy, legislation and service development.” – WHO

Homeless persons with psychosocial disabilities lose their rights as citizens of the country due to lack of relevant documents/ identity proof, which in turn is either lost or left behind at home, when they start living on the streets. With barely any savings and facing life as a nonentity, these persons require the support of the State through relevant entitlements to rebuild their lives.

The team works towards advocating for the protection and promotion of clients which is denied owning to their ‘social invisibility’. Identity markers are imperative for them since it then lends them social and political recognition and enables access to Government schemes.
