Letters to Strangers Sierra Leone Chapter

About us

Letters to Strangers (L2S) is the largest global youth-run nonprofit seeking to destigmatize mental illness and increase access to affordable, quality treatment, particularly for youth*. We want mental health made personal, because each person deserves to be treated as the individual they are. No one's identity should be buried beneath statistics. Indeed: often there is nothing greater than a person-to-person human connection. Beyond the mental health needs, we provide support for the basic social needs including food, clothing, educational and access to play. Most of the children we are working with are deprived, vulnerable, singled-parents and orphaned and sometimes homeless.
