The birth of The Mental Wellness Society – International coincided with the onset of the COVID era, extending a helping hand to First Responders and Healthcare professionals worldwide. Our primary focus was on averting vicarious trauma and burnout among those tirelessly aiding others. As we stood at 2,000 members strong, the conflict in Ukraine unfolded, prompting over 450 immediate volunteers from our ranks to form a task force and provide assistance. The success was monumental. Now, with a global membership exceeding 11,000, a new challenge looms.

Today marks the launch of the MWS Task Force “Mental Wellness and Well-being Resilience in Israel”, a beacon radiating hope and progress in the field of mental wellness. Dedicated to fortifying the psychological well-being of individuals across Israel, our international team of professionals is poised to toil relentlessly in establishing a resilient and supportive environment, coupled with comprehensive training for those aiding others.

Our approach is holistic, acknowledging the integral role mental wellness plays in overall well-being. Through the cultivation of community, understanding, and empathy, our mission is to advance awareness and access to innovative approaches for psychological health. Armed with educational programs, outreach initiatives, and strategic partnerships, we aspire to foster a society that places mental wellness on par with physical health.

We invite you to join us on this transformative journey towards a stronger and more resilient Israel. Together, we can construct a nation where everyone enjoys access to the support and resources necessary for emotional and psychological thriving. Let’s dismantle barriers, challenge misconceptions, and illuminate the path toward a brighter, more mentally resilient future.
