On the occasion of World Mental Health Day 2025, Goa College of Home Science, in collaboration with the State Tele-MANAS Cell Goa, organized a workshop focused on this year’s global theme — ‘Access to Services: Mental Health in Catastrophes and Emergencies.’ The event aimed to promote awareness, build community resilience, and address mental health challenges during crises.
Project Mann, a joint initiative of Mpower (Aditya Birla Education Trust) and CISF, has provided mental health support to over 75,000 CISF personnel and their families. With services like counselling, psychometric assessments, and a 24×7 helpline, the program has led to a 40% reduction in suicide incidents, highlighting the critical role of mental well-being in operational readiness.
