About Us

Extending Support Beyond Peer Experiences

While peer support programs focus on assisting individuals going through similar struggles or mental health issues, Emotional First Aid equips you to support anyone seeking to improve their mental well-being.

Providing emotional support is an art rather than science.

Each person and situation is unique, making it impossible to have a one-size-fits-all manual.

Emotional First Aid vs. Crisis Intervention Training

Traditional approaches to mental health primarily rely on therapy and counselling, often overlooking the power of education in empowering individuals to take control of their well-being.

Where we come from

The Emotional First Aid Academy is an institute founded in 2018 to transform empathetic citizens from bystanders to mental health champions.

The number of psychiatrists in India is a paltry 9000. Addressing the needs of a population of 139.34 crores. That’s less than one professional for 1500 cases per 100,000 people in most Indian states. Quite like COVID second-wave pandemic proportions for sure. Makes sense that so many turn to absolutely any form of support, even if imaginary. So dire is the situation that experts believe (given the trajectory of mental health decline) that 80% of the population will suffer from a diagnosable mental illness before 2045. Habify’s Emotional First Aid Academy exists to address the worsening deficit in mental health support.
