How can we fight deeply-engrained stigma around mental health—not just in Sierra Leone, but around the world? We speak with mental health nurse Julianna Showers and psychiatrist Dr. Abdul Jalloh to learn how Sierra Leone Psychiatric Teaching Hospital staff are working to promote awareness and respect around mental health conditions. And we speak with Aminata, a patient who received care at the hospital, who sheds light on the need for systemic transformation.
