National Fair Outreach is a registered Psychological and Training Consultancy based in Juba, South Sudan. We are delivering counselling, psychotherapy, and family therapy services to individuals. And we are serving as the leading Military Counselling and Psychotherapy service provider for the South Sudan People's Defence Forces (SSPDF), veterans, and organized forces in the country.
The Republic of South Sudan has one of the highest mental health care gap rates in the world. Currently, there is less than 1% coverage of the population in humanitarian assistance programs. Soldiers who come back from frontline duty, veterans who struggle with reintegration at home, and civilians who have suffered as a result of war. NFO was established with the aim of reducing that gap by providing psychological services from within the barracks, cantonments, and affected communities.
The mission of NFO is to bring hope for mental health to the security sector and its surrounding communities. It is through counselling, professional capacity development, and acknowledging the toll that decades of civil war have brought to the South Sudanese nation.
Mental Health treatment should not be exclusive. We go to those places where there is stigma around mental illness and ensure that seeking help does not come at the price of losing one’s dignity.
We operate in 10 states and 3 administrative regions; we work in barracks, cantonment areas, and centers of 62 wounded assemblies.
We make our advocacy to the Ministry of Defense and Veterans’ Affairs and the leaders of South Sudan, transforming the reality on the ground into policies and integrated clinics.
We have trained our counsellors using all recognized clinical approaches, such as the psychodynamic approach, cognitive-behavioral approach, and solution-focused therapy.
Each group of military counsellors we train will continue doing our job even when we leave the scene. This is building capacity that will stand the test of time.
Whether someone fought on the battlefields or survived the aftermath of the battlefields, we handle their situation in all seriousness.
