Advocacy
We use different platforms to engage government on Mental Health Issues in order to challenge the discrimination and prejudice related to mental illness, as well as cause improvements in legislation, service development and policies related to mental health.
Focus on Recovery Uganda, together with other civil society organizations under Uganda Alcohol Policy Alliance and the Ministry of Health were quite instrumental in the passing of the Alcohol Control Bill that seeks to restrict the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages by underage persons among other landmark achievements.
FORE has engaged various political offices and other persons of interest in trying to advance Mental Health Awareness in this country.
