GramInn, under Project HEAL, conducted a Mental Health Awareness session for 31 working women in Arinchermala (Ward 15), Panamaram Gram Panchayat on 30th August, 2026. The programme was managed by Ms. Chandana S. (Programme Coordinator) and Ms. Aleena T. J. (Volunteer).
The session covered mental health, common conditions, and stress-management strategies. Participants discussed daily stressors in five groups; each group presented key points. The GAD-7 screening tool was administered, and participants were guided on score calculation and briefed on Generalized Anxiety Disorder.
Reena Varghese, Director of GramInn Wayanad, said: “Stress in work and adult life creates havoc for many women. Such sessions are essential for early recognition, learning coping strategies, and building community support.”
