Advocacy for Rights and Reduction of Stigma
In an effort to fight stigma and discrimination in India against those suffering from psychosocial and mental disabilities or illnesses. Snehi has been working for the last 26 years to advocate for rights for people with psychosocial and mental disabilities and reduce stigma against anyone having mental disorders. Snehi holds various conferences, meetings, and workshops with opinion makers and media to sensitize them on mental health issues and the rights of people with psychosocial and mental disabilities.
In the area of advocacy, Snehi, working with a range of partners, successfully lobbied for the inclusion of mental health in the Government of India’s XIth Five Year Plan (2007-2012). As a result, for the first time in Indian history, mental health was acknowledged at the national health policy level and a switch was made from institution-based to community-based care and prevention. Due to advocacy by Snehi and its partners, the national budget for mental health multiplied seven-fold. Snehi and its partners are presently working toward ensuring that the plan and policies are properly implemented with major focus to Opinion & Policy Makers.
