Today, we join the world to mark World Mental Health Day 2025 under the theme “Mental Health in Humanitarian Emergencies.”
Crises, whether caused by conflict, displacement, natural disasters, or social instability, often leave deep emotional scars that go beyond physical loss. Millions face trauma, anxiety, grief, and uncertainty, yet mental health support remains one of the most overlooked needs in humanitarian response.
This year’s theme reminds us that mental health care is not a luxury; it is a lifeline. Even in emergencies, every person deserves access to psychological support, empathy, and safe spaces to heal.
At the Nasarawa State Human Capital Development Agency (NSHCDA), we recognize that protecting mental well-being is vital to building resilience. Through our community outreach, youth and women empowerment programs, and health initiatives, we continue to raise awareness about emotional support, trauma recovery, and psychosocial care in times of crisis.
Today, we stand in solidarity with those affected by conflict, disaster, or loss, and we reaffirm our commitment to ensuring that mental health is prioritized in every response, every recovery, and every rebuilding effort.
Let us keep speaking, supporting, and showing compassion, because healing minds helps rebuild lives.
