When we asked the students to shout SpeakOut, the response said it all — the passion, the excitement, and the belief in mental health awareness. And yes… the ladies brought the extra energy and stole the moment! 👏✨

This is what SpeakOut is about: giving young people a voice, breaking stigma, and making mental health conversations normal on our campuses.

The future is louder, braver, and more aware — and we love to see it! 💚

📍 Ogun State Outreach – Part 2

Mental health is not separate from physical health — they work together.

In our Ogun State outreach, alongside medical checks, we had honest conversations around mental wellbeing, stress, and the importance of seeking help early. Many people shared stories they had never spoken about before.

This is why we do the work.
This is why awareness matters.

In partnership with Synia Aid Foundation, we continue to bring mental health education, advocacy, and basic medical care closer to the people — meeting communities where they are.

🧠 Awareness saves lives
❤️ Early care changes outcomes
🤝 Community support makes the difference

🎥 Voices from the Classroom: Mental Health Matters

In this interview, we sat with the Principal of NSUK Primary & Secondary School to discuss the growing mental and emotional challenges facing students today—from academic pressure and social stress to silent struggles that often go unnoticed.

The conversation highlights:
• The mental plight of young learners
• Why early intervention is critical
• The role schools, parents, and communities must play
• How organizations like SpeakOut Mental Health Outreach can step in with awareness, advocacy, and support

Our mission is simple: catch it early, talk about it openly, and support students before it escalates.

This interview is part of our ongoing mental health awareness and advocacy program across schools in Keffi and Nasarawa State, using both community outreach and our digital platform, MindCheck.

📌 Watch. Listen. Share.

📍 Keffi | Awareness. Education. Impact.

Today, we spent time with secondary school students in Keffi having honest conversations about mental health, self-awareness, peer pressure, and making healthy life choices.

These students are growing up in a fast-changing world, and too often, their emotional well-being is overlooked. Through this awareness session, we created a safe space for them to ask questions, share their thoughts, and learn that it’s okay to speak up, seek help, and support one another.

Early education and awareness save lives.
When young people understand their emotions, boundaries, and choices, they are better equipped to face challenges both in and out of school.

We remain committed to reaching more schools, empowering more students, and building a future where mental health conversations are normal—not silent.

💚 The conversation continues.

🎥 INTERVIEW WITH THE PRINCIPAL – PRIME PEACE ACADEMY, KEFFI

In this important conversation, we sat down with the Principal of Prime Peace Academy to talk about the growing mental and emotional needs of children in today’s world.

From academic pressure to social stress, family challenges, and emotional wellbeing, our children are facing more than we often realize. The Principal shared powerful insights on:

What schools are seeing daily among students

Why mental health can no longer be ignored

The role of parents, schools, and the community

The urgent need for early intervention and support

This conversation is a strong reminder that a healthy mind is just as important as good grades. When we support children mentally and emotionally, we help them grow into confident, balanced, and successful adults.

Let’s keep the conversation going. Our children deserve it. 💚

🎙️ MENTAL HEALTH ADVOCACY IN SCHOOLS 🎙️

In this powerful interview, we sat down with the Principal of Keffi Premier Academy to discuss mental health awareness, student wellbeing, and the critical role secondary schools play in shaping emotionally healthy young people.

From recognizing early warning signs to creating safe spaces where students can speak up, this conversation highlights why schools must go beyond academics and intentionally support the mental, emotional, and social development of learners.

When school leaders speak, communities listen. When schools act, lives are protected.
This is how we build a generation that is not only educated, but mentally strong and supported. 💙

🎥 DRUG ABUSE AWARENESS | PART 2 🎥

In this second part of our session with primary school pupils, we went deeper — teaching them how to recognize bad influences, speak up, and ask for help when something doesn’t feel right. Through stories, questions, and real-life examples, the children learned that being bold and informed is a superpower.

What stood out the most was their honesty and curiosity. When children are given the right guidance early, they grow with confidence and clarity. This is why SpeakOut remains committed to early prevention, education, and mentorship.

A drug-free future begins with conversations like this — one child at a time. 💙

21/01/2026

SpeakOut had the privilege of engaging bright young minds in an interactive session on drug abuse awareness. We spoke with primary school pupils about making healthy choices, understanding peer pressure, and saying no to harmful substances — in simple language they could understand and remember.

The children asked thoughtful questions, shared their ideas, and showed us that when education starts early, prevention becomes possible. Our goal is not to scare, but to equip, guide, and empower them with the right values and information.

We believe that protecting our future starts with educating our children today. Together, we can raise a generation that is informed, confident, and drug-free. 💙
