About us

Founded to close a gap no one should fall through

Wellness 360 Initiative is a non-profit, non-governmental organization established in 2019 and registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) in Nigeria.

Our story

Why we exist

Across Nigeria and much of Africa, mental health care is scarce, expensive and clouded by stigma. Millions of people face anxiety, depression, trauma and the psychosocial impact of gender-based violence with nowhere affordable to turn.

We were founded in response to that gap. Our work brings mental health support closer to individuals and communities through awareness, education, counselling, trainings, psychosocial support, advocacy, capacity building and community-based interventions.

Since inception we have positively impacted the lives of over 4,000 people, providing information, support and guidance that helps them navigate mental health challenges and build healthier, more resilient lives. We are continually expanding our reach to serve young people, women, vulnerable groups and underserved communities.

Mission

To build mental health resilience, promote emotional wellbeing, reduce stigma, and address the psychosocial impact of gender-based violence through accessible, community-based care.

Vision

Communities where mental health support is within everyone's reach, regardless of social or economic circumstance.

What we stand for

Four commitments behind every programme

Accessibility
Support should not depend on your income, your city or your connections. We take care to where people already are.
Dignity
Every person who reaches us is met with respect and confidentiality. No labels, no shame.
Community
Healing lasts when a community carries it. We build local capacity, not dependence on us.
Evidence & empathy
Our methods are grounded in good practice, and delivered with real human warmth.
