Mental health under control: a special map has been launched in Kyiv

In the Kyiv Digital app, a Mental Health Map of Kyiv has been launched—a tool that provides everyone the opportunity to find the necessary support. This is an important step towards digital accessibility. This was reported by Marina Honda, the Deputy Head of the Kyiv City State Administration for social, veteran, and gender policy, children’s rights protection, tourism, and accessibility issues in Kyiv.

The map was presented during the discussion of the Action Plan for the implementation of the Mental Health Development Concept. Mental health is just as important for well-being as physical health. The new map will give users access to information about services tailored to their needs through convenient filters.

The map includes:

  • Opening hours of institutions
  • Types of assistance
  • Categories for which services are intended (military personnel, students, etc.)
  • Ways to contact and reach out

The service already contains information about over 300 service providers—psychologists, support centers, social services, etc.—and will continue to be updated.

International organizations, NGOs, and the private sector are invited to contribute to the map’s content so that people have a broader choice of where to turn for help. Interested organizations can contact su*****@ky**.digital .
