The poster aims to describe the development of mental health services through a collaboration between Health Foundation Nepal, which has operated in the United States and Nepal since 2013, and the Nepal Institute of Mental Health, which has worked in Nepal since 2022. The program is built on six pillars: clinical care, capacity building, research, advocacy, awareness, and rights-based care, with its development presented as a timeline. Facility-based services include a primary care mental health clinic established in Dang in 2018, an integrated psychiatric care and rehabilitation center established in Dang in 2021, and two community mental health centers established in Dang and Chitwan in 2022. In 2025, the Manav Sewa Ashram mental health support program was launched in homeless shelters across the country. In 2026, an agreement was reached with the government hospital in Chitwan to establish the National Center for Mental Health (NCMH), which will be the country's largest psychiatric center. Community-based programs include awareness initiatives that began in Dang in 2019 and expanded to Chitwan in 2022, school mental health programs that began in Dang in 2021 and expanded to Chitwan in 2022, a nationwide digital awareness campaign launched in 2023, and a radio program broadcast on more than 10 radio stations. Also presented are the Smile Mothers program, running in Dang since 2019 and in Chitwan since 2023; the Smile Aama Baa program, running in Dang since 2022 and in Chitwan since 2023; mental health initiatives in humanitarian crisis settings (COVID-19, the Kavre flood, and the 2026 glacial lake outburst flood [GLOF]); international community mental health conferences in 2024, 2025, and 2027 (the last of which is planned); and the Global Community Mental Health Certificate training program launched in 2025. The poster contains no quantitative outcomes or evaluation data; it documents service development chronologically.
