On the occasion of World Mental Health Day, H.E. Salama Al Ameemi, Director General of the Family Care Authority, emphasized that at the Family Care Authority, we believe that prioritising mental health is fundamental to fostering stability, balance and overall well-being for every individual in our community. We continue our efforts to empower families and strengthen their unity by nurturing a culture of awareness and openness, breaking the barriers of silence and fear that surround the pursuit of psychological support. Seeking help is not a sign of weakness; it is an act of courage that reflects a willingness to change for the better.
Together with our esteemed partners across the sector, we continue to develop a holistic social care system that delivers integrated psychological and social services, grounded in community awareness and trust-building initiatives within families. At FCA, we are fully committed to safeguarding and enhancing the mental health of our community through comprehensive, accessible services and support systems that cultivate psychological balance and emotional resilience for individuals and families across the Emirate.
The Authority calls on every community member to unite in championing a culture of mental well-being. Together, we can build a more compassionate and understanding society that prioritises mental health and family stability. Mental health is a priority and a responsibility entrusted to every member of society, so that we may enjoy a balanced and cohesive community
The strength of our nation is rooted in the health of its minds and hearts.
