DFS is actively pursuing sponsorships and/or donations to support our awarded DFS scholars, with the objective of delivering high-quality mental health services to underserved communities in the Philippines.

 

MENTAL HEALTH ACCESS FOR EVERY JUAN

Mental health is frequently subject to stigma, neglect, and insufficient consideration, despite the rising incidence of psychological distress among Filipinos. This stigma often deters individuals from seeking professional help, leading them to rely on advice from family and friends. However, these informal consultations frequently fall short of addressing their needs, potentially causing more harm than benefit (Martinez, A. et al., 2020).

 

Mental illness ranks as the third most prevalent disability in the Philippines. It is estimated that approximately 6 million Filipinos live with depression and/or anxiety, positioning the country with the third highest rate of mental health issues in the Western Pacific Region (WHO, 2017).

 

Moreover, mental disorders are approximately twice as common among impoverished populations. Despite the pressing need for mental health services, indigent families often lack access to quality care (Patel, V. et al., 1999). Additional barriers reported by Filipinos include financial constraints and the inaccessibility of services (Martinez, A. et al., 2020).

 

In response to these challenges, DFS is taking a proactive role in bridging the gap and enhancing access to mental health care for children and families facing financial hardships. Our objective is to provide high-quality services through our licensed psychologists and psychiatrists, ensuring that mental health care is accessible to every Juan.
