About
The Perak Society For The Promotion of Mental Health was established in October 1967, as a pilot project for the rehabilitation of mental patients.
A centre was set up at the Luther Clinic in Clarke Street, Ipoh to which a few mental patients from Hospital Bahagia were brought each day. Under the guidance of a trained social worker, they carried out occupational therapy work and cultural recreational activities.
Objective
The Centre exists to achieve the following objectives: -
- To promote a better standard of mental health in its social, education and mental aspects.
- To provide facilities to help those who are in a state of mental strain or emotional problems.
- To raise funds for the management of the affairs of the society.
- To promote mental health and awareness among Malaysians.
- To rehabilitate residents and integrate them back to society and to gain and develop the skills and resources necessary to live in the community (Job Placement).
