Mental Health: The New Global Crisis
In Rwanda, where youth comprise 78% of the population, drug addiction poses a significant threat to socio-economic development.With over 10,000 young people entering rehabilitation centers each year and a 25% relapse rate, there is an urgent need for a comprehensive approach to address this crisis.

Addiction is not the root issue; it is a symptom. 


Introducing: Embrace New Beginnings
Life Link Rwanda’s Reintegration Program for Former Drug Users Exiting Rehabilitation Centers


Our Mission
Through Embrace New Beginnings, we are committed to transforming lives and shaping futures by helping young people break free from addiction, overcome societal stigma, and rediscover their true identity in Christ. Our approach focuses on holistic healing—spiritual, emotional, and economic transformation.

Key Objectives:


  1. True Identity in Christ: Redeemed and Restored
    At the core of Embrace New Beginnings is the message of unconditional love and redemption. No matter what their past holds, every young person is loved beyond measure by God and offered a fresh start in Christ. We help them discover their true identity and experience the healing and restoration that comes from this relationship.


  2. Overcome Stigma, Restore Self-Worth
    Recovery begins with reclaiming self-worth. By addressing the deep wounds of stigma, we empower young people to restore their dignity, reinforcing that their value is intrinsic and far greater than their past mistakes.


  3. Strengthen Family and Community Ties
    Successful recovery cannot happen in isolation. Rebuilding family and community connections is essential. We work to restore relationships, ensuring youth have a stable support system as they reintegrate into society.


  4. Facilitate Economic Empowerment
    True transformation includes economic independence. We provide vocational training and economic opportunities, equipping youth with the tools and skills necessary to build a stable future and contribute to society.


  5. Called for a Purpose: Strengthened in Faith
    Each young person is called to live a purposeful life. By helping them embrace their divine calling and strengthening their faith, we empower them to face challenges with confidence, resilience, and a renewed sense of direction grounded in God’s grace.
