Healthy Habits is Tutapona’s newest program, having run for only the past four years. But in those years, we’ve heard countless stories of transformation, redemption, and ultimately freedom to move on and create new, better things within lives!

The third of August, marks ten years since the start of ISIS attacks in Sinjar, signaling the beginning of its terrorist campaign against the Yazidi population. We want to acknowledge their resilience and the ongoing struggle for healing. The world must continue to support the Yazidi people in their quest for the return of the missing, and for justice. Let this anniversary serve as a reminder of the importance of vigilance against hatred and a commitment to protecting the rights and dignity of all peoples.

Today, we celebrate the achievements and contributions of women worldwide, and we’re thrilled to share an exciting that took place within our organization last year. Our first female Country Director, Sara Juko, began leading our dedicated Uganda team as they provide vital mental health programming for people affected by war.
