About and missions

Founded by dedicated professionals, social practitioners, and academics, the Moroccan Association for the Promotion of Mental Health (AMPS) places primary prevention and universal access to psychological literacy at the core of its mission.

AMPS focuses specifically on adolescents, university students, and young professionals, fostering a compassionate understanding of emotional well-being, chronic stress, and psychological vulnerabilities. Its initiatives emphasize open dialogue, non-judgmental peer interactions, and active civic participation, promoting lasting positive shifts in public mental health perceptions.
