The People We Helped:

3000+

People have recieved peer support through JIWA in Brunei. Over the years our surveys found that 85% of those did not need professional help and sufficient with peer support further proving the effectiveness and necessity of peer support as bridges to clinical care rather than an alternative.

JIWA aims to solidify the peer support system by training youths in all Brunei districts increasing accessibility to mental health support!
