The Kenya Alliance for Mental Health (KAMH) is on a mission to improve mental healthcare in Kenya

KAMH has partnered with Grand Canyon University, in Phoenix Arizona, to develop a professional training program. The Kenyan Mental Health Care Practitioner Certificate Program is designed to create a robust and skilled mental health workforce capable of meeting the diverse mental health needs of the Kenyan population, ultimately improving access to quality care and promoting overall mental well-being to enlarge the mental health workforce in Kenya.

We teach practical, clinical, and spiritual skills to help care for the person as a whole: mind, body, and spirit. With increased mental, emotional, and behavioral flexibility, our students are better able to adjust to external and internal demands, and as a result, they are more successful in coping with difficult and challenging life experiences. This training not only benefits the individual members of these organizations, but also the community they serve.

The KAMH public mental health initiative aims to create a more informed, empathetic, and supportive society that recognizes the importance of mental health and is equipped to address mental health challenges collectively.

The KAMH Sports Initiative is introducing programs that are based on the Neurosequential Model, which emphasizes the core concepts of brain function, development, and the impact of developmental adversity. The programs utilize Kenyan cultural activities, such as running, dancing, and drumming, which facilitate regulation through repetitive rhythmic activities.
