Developing mental health services in Nigeria : the impact of a community-based mental health awareness programme.

Julian Eaton1, Ahamefula O Agomoh.   

Abstract

This grass-roots level mental health awareness programme considerably increased use of community-based mental health services in a part of Nigeria where knowledge about treatability of mental illness was limited. The benefits of the programme were sustained for a significant period after the initial awareness programme. In order for attitude changes to be reinforced, similar awareness programmes must be repeated at regular intervals.
