We partnered with Asian Refugees United to implement Project Sahaara, a Problem Management Plus (PM+) pilot to deliver a peer-led, low-intensity psychological intervention to Nepali-speaking Bhutanese communities in central Pennsylvania. After completing 50 hours of training, 9 facilitators demonstrated competency in foundational helping skills and in the core PM+ strategies of stress management, problem-solving, behavioral activation, and strengthening social support.

Interested in adapting low-intensity psychological interventions in your community? Email the Director of U.S. Mental Health Programs, Dr. John Pateña, at info@healthright.org

Every day in Nairobi’s informal settlements, mothers face more than pregnancy and new parenthood—stress, stigma, and limited access to care take a real toll on their mental health.

Since 2020, together with community health teams in Mathare North and Embakasi South, we’ve helped change this reality:
• 20,000+ people reached with mental health education
• Mental health integrated into routine maternal care
• Mothers seeking support increased from 3% to 82%

These numbers represent something powerful: mothers feeling seen, supported, and hopeful. With continued support, we can reach even more women and make maternal mental health part of everyday care.

Last week, HealthRight CEO Dr. Peter Navario visited Kyiv, meeting with partners from UNICEF, WHO Ukraine, the Ministry of Health, and Parliament, as well as business and civil society leaders. These conversations were about more than partnership—they were about our shared responsibility to rebuild Ukraine’s healthcare system and integrate psychosocial support into communities across the country.

At Bogomolets National Medical University, Dr. Navario and Dr. Halyna Skipalska, Ukraine Country Director, met with Rector Yuriy Kuchyn and university leaders to explore new educational collaborations that connect training with real-world public health experience—helping future doctors and psychologists better respond to mental health, resilience, and crisis care.

We extend our gratitude to our partners and colleagues for their dedication, professionalism, and shared vision—because a healthy society begins with education, compassion, and collaboration.

We’re proud to share that Dr. John Patena, Director of HealthRight’s U.S. Mental Health Program, presented at the 2025 American Public Health Association (APHA) Conference this week!

His presentation, “Evaluation of a Psychosocial Intervention to Improve Adolescent Birth Experiences in West Pokot, Kenya,” highlighted how low-cost, community-led psychosocial tools—such as Doing What Matters in Times of Stress—can significantly improve birth experiences and mental health for adolescent mothers.

These results underscore the power of evidence-based, scalable approaches to strengthening maternal and adolescent health globally.
