Millennium Fellowship Project: The Smiley Face Movement
The aim of this project is to spread mental health awareness among the youth in rural Kenya where such issues are usually overlooked. I plan to partner with health care providers inorder to do outreaches that will help in raising awareness and reducing the stigma surrounding mental illnesses.
