The Greek Red Cross has launched a mental health awareness campaign in Thessaloniki, responding to growing public concerns about psychological well-being. The initiative, announced through local media, aims to provide support and resources to individuals affected by recent social and economic pressures.
The campaign includes free counseling sessions, informational workshops, and community outreach programs. It is coordinated by local volunteers and medical professionals affiliated with the Red Cross. According to a spokesperson, the initiative follows an increase in inquiries about stress and anxiety, particularly among young adults and families.
This effort comes after a series of reports highlighting the impact of economic uncertainty and social isolation on mental health in the region. The Greek Red Cross has partnered with local health authorities to ensure the program reaches those most in need. The campaign will run for three months, with plans to expand to other cities if successful.
