Mental health literacy is a human right.
Everyone deserves the language of their emotions.
Yak Lebass Foundation works
to make psychological knowledge accessible,
compassionate, and culturally grounded
— so no one has to suffer in silence.
OUR MISSION
Our Foundation exists to break the chains of mental illness on individuals and to dismantle the fear of mental illness within communities.
Across almost all regions in Africa, mental illness is burdened with stigma — framed as weakness, moral failure, magic, or possession. This fear isolates individuals, delays care, and deepens suffering.
The Foundation works to separate mental illness from myth, and to present it as we present any other medical condition — such as diabetes or glaucoma — grounded in clinical evidence, neuroscience, and medical understanding.
Mental illness is not mystery.
It is biology, psychology, and lived experience — and it can be understood.
We aim to provide psychological vocabulary, starting from the most basic concepts and extending across all mental health conditions, without exclusion.
We believe that understanding precedes healing — and that language is the first step toward dignity, clarity, and care.
Through structured psychoeducation, The Foundation equips individuals and communities with the words, concepts, and frameworks needed to understand the mind without fear.
WE PROVIDE FREE EMOTIONAL EDUCATION SEMINARS, FREE OF COST ACROSS COUNTRIES.

PSYCHOEDUCATION
Psychoeducation is the act of returning the mind to the people. It is the systematic teaching of psychological and neuroscientific knowledge — not to specialists, but to the public — so that no one remains afraid of what they are experiencing simply because they lack words.
