Ministry Expands Support After MV Barima Tragedy | Guyana News

The Ministry of Human Services and Social Security is launching expanded mental health and grief counseling services nationwide in response to the MV Barima tragedy, offering free, 24/7 support via hotlines and community hubs — for everyone affected, not just direct victims. Social workers are already on the ground, providing home visits and connecting families with urgent needs like hospital access, medications, and child care. Plans include adding online counseling with psychologists and international support from the Guyanese diaspora, coordinated with Health and Education ministries. The message is clear: you’re not alone — help is available, ongoing, and tailored to every emotional need. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
