The Kizazi Program equips students with vital skills to navigate challenges and support peers. By investing in future generations, the Kizazi Program tackles stigma and builds resilience in young Kenyans.
A peer training initiative by Hopewell Firm that equips 10,000 public high school students in 2024 with basic counseling skills, mental health awareness, and peer support techniques.
Many young students face mental health challenges, impacting their well-being and academics. Limited access to affordable mental health services and the stigma surrounding the topic make peer support crucial.
The program empowers students to support their peers, reduces stigma, and equips educators with a referral system for students needing help. This can lead to a more positive school environment and improved academic performance.
We collaborate with school administration to assess needs and deliver a 2-day training program with practical sessions and engaging activities.
The program trains students in basic counseling skills, problem-solving, conflict resolution, peer pressure resistance, and mental health first aid while promoting transformational leadership qualities.
