We are here to help
Challenges to muslim mental wellbeing in schools
Stigma, lack of awareness, and limited expertise prevent schools from providing the care students and staff truly need.
Lack of on-site support
Schools rarely have trained professionals to guide Muslim students and teachers struggling emotionally.
Limited alignment with values
Generic therapy programs don't always reflect cultural or values-based guidance.
Stigma within the school community
Seeking mental health help is seen as a weakness.
Disconnect between teachers and counselors
Teachers want to support students but often lack training or referral systems.
