Mental Health & Career Pathways

Be the Change for Youth! Help us empower Kampala’s young minds with mental health support and career guidance.

The Mental Health & Career Pathways Project, a partnership between Mtindo Network Development Initiative and the Lyfe Network, supports young people’s mental well-being while guiding them toward clear, sustainable career paths.

Through mental health awareness, psychosocial support, and career guidance, the project helps youth build emotional resilience, make informed career choices, and transition confidently into education, entrepreneurship, or work. Our goal is to reach 1000+ youth, both in and out of school, in densely populated and vulnerable communities like Kawempe and Kamwokya, empowering them to thrive despite challenges.
