Exciting News from Evolution Health! We are proud to announce that Evolution Health has received a grant from the Larta Institute, funded by Gilead Sciences, to launch Shared Strength (Спільна Сила) - a global, interactive digital resilience course for Ukrainian refugees. What sets Shared Strength apart is its emphasis on shared experiences and its potential to foster resilience within displaced communities. This course will be integrated into the Evolution Health platform (https://lnkd.in/dAquFNEM), further expanding its capacity to deliver accessible, culturally adaptable mental health solutions to global audiences. Evolution is deeply grateful to our partners for their contributions to this meaningful project: ➡️ SoftHouseGroup, displaced Ukrainian engineers leading development and translation, and ➡️ Sofiia Lahutina, whose expertise in digital mental health, and shared background, are helping shape a course that is both impactful and culturally sensitive. Together, we’re building a resource to address the unique challenges faced by refugees and creating a model for global mental health support. Follow Evolution Health and stay tuned for updates as we bring this important initiative to life! We will be assessing engagement with the course, and publishing results in a peer-reviewed journal. If you would like more information on this project, or if you would like to get involved, please Contact Us (https://lnkd.in/gjiK5G4U). #MentalHealth #Resilience #HealLA #DigitalHealth #UkrainianSupport #SharedStrength #EvolutionHealth #DrTrevorvanMierlo

The experience of moving through the New Zealand Justice system can be extremely challenging for a person who is already experiencing the trauma of unintentionally causing the death of another person. The process can require re-living of the trauma over and over. For some it can help the healing process and for others it can do the opposite. If you can, reach out for support from others who understand.

SUICIDE PREVENTION AWARENESS MONTH It starts with worrying over things we have absolutely no control over. It starts with a voice saying we are not enough. It starts with stigma from people we least expected. It starts with a voice saying a little self-harm won’t hurt. It starts with the need to cover up pains and hurt with fake smiles. It’s starts with withdrawal from the things that would normally excite us Suicide robs you of great things waiting ahead of you So, feeling overwhelmed? Talk to someone and seek medical help! Changing the narrative. Start the conversation! World Health Organization Raised for Excellence AntiSuicide PS: This video was captured during the implementation of one of several SDG projects, conducted as part of the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Community Development Service (CDS) group during my National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) tenure. The one CDS group I am most grateful for 🤗 #suicideawarenessmonth #saynotosuicide #suicideprevention #mentalawareness #recovery

In the intricate tapestry of recovery, building a supportive community plays a pivotal role. Surrounding yourself with individuals who empathize with your experiences can provide a sense of belonging and understanding that is invaluable on the path to healing. Consider connecting with friends and family members who are willing to listen without judgment and offer unwavering support. Additionally, seek out support groups or peer-led organizations where you can engage with individuals who share similar challenges and triumphs. These communities offer a safe space to share your struggles, gain insights from others' experiences, and celebrate milestones together. Remember, the journey of recovery is not meant to be traveled alone. By fostering connections with others who understand your journey, you can find solace, strength, and inspiration to navigate life's ups and downs.
