There is no question that COVID-19 has increased stress and anxiety in our lives. This is why the Trinidad and Tobago Red Cross Society (TTRCS) curated three kits which are a part of the psychosocial support initiative entitled, “Healthy Mind…Healthy Me”. The first two kits were launched on May 8th, 2020 for World Red Cross Day, and the third kit was launched later in June 2020. The campaign focuses on mental health and stress relieving methods that persons can take anywhere with them.
The kits were specially designed as a medium to assist adults and children in coping through any situation. It offers therapeutic items to decrease uneasiness, build focus and aid with mindfulness. It was also curated with the purpose of providing enjoyment, relief, and emotional support during this time.
Proceeds generated from the kits sold will help strengthen the campaigns outreach to persons in society who are struggling to cope through any crisis.
