Millennium Fellowship Project: Students Mental Health Advocates
Students Mental Health Advocates is a platform birthed out of the need to attend to the mental health of students within the university community. WHO estimates that fewer than 10 percent of mentally ill Nigerians have access to the care they need. This also applies to students within the campus community. Quite a several students within
the community have gone through one mental illness or the other but have no one they could speak up to or no campus student group they could express themselves to. SMA comes to fill the gap. The Students Mental health advocates is dedicated to educating, providing support and creating awareness on the mental health of students within the university community.
