Little Lions Kenya.
Children’s mental health programmes in Kenya
Little Lions Kenya supports children’s mental wellbeing through local partnerships, trained coaches and community based emotional resilience programmes.
Working with schools and community organisations, we bring practical mental wellbeing support into trusted spaces where children already learn, grow and connect.
Our work in Kenya
Little Lions Kenya works with local partners to help children:
- Understand and talk about emotions
- Build confidence and self awareness
- Learn practical coping skills
- Develop resilience
- Strengthen positive relationships

Our approach is partner led, locally relevant and designed to strengthen the people and spaces already supporting children.

A community rooted approach
Many children and families do not have easy access to professional mental health support.
Little Lions Kenya helps create another layer of care by strengthening the people, relationships and spaces already surrounding children.
By training and supporting local coaches, the programme becomes part of existing community structures. This helps make mental health conversations more accessible, culturally relevant and locally sustained.
