Mental health problems affect a significant portion of the adult population. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 20% of adults worldwide experience a mental health disorder in any given year. In India alone, the National Mental Health Survey 2016 reported that approximately 13.7% of the adult population suffers from some form of mental health disorder.
Untreated mental health issues in adults can have severe consequences on their lives including experiencing difficulties in personal relationships, work performance, and daily functions to contributing to physical health problems, leading to a vicious cycle of declining well-being if left unaddressed.
At Sangath, we are committed to making a difference in adult mental health through developing evidence based psychosocial interventions and creating innovating models of care through task sharing and innovating and implementing cutting edge digital solutions in mental health and their integration in existing health systems and platforms of care. We also believe in the power of community outreach, sensitisation and engaging various stakeholders to raise awareness about adult mental health and the issues they face.
