To every boy growing up trying to figure out who he is, you are seen. Your feelings matter. Your dreams matter. And your wellbeing matters just as much as your strength.

When boys are supported, they become men who respect, protect, and uplift others. That is the world we are working towards at Cascia Consult, one boy, one family, one community at a time.

A boy today. A leader tomorrow. A better world always.

The NAP 2024–2028 covers civil and political rights, women and children’s rights, disability inclusion, environmental justice, business accountability, and the rights of IDPs, refugees, and older persons. It tells government agencies what they are mandated to do. And it gives civil society a legitimate, structured space to monitor, report, and demand accountability.

On 13th May, the National Human Rights Commission brought together government agencies, civil society organizations, and human rights advocates in Ibadan for a consultative meeting on NAP implementation. The Oyo State Child Protection Network was represented by Cascia Social Support and Mental Health Services, FAHPAC, Expressive Grace Initiative, and HOSEC Foundation.

The message was clear: CSOs are not just service providers. We are accountability partners. That means documenting violations, supporting vulnerable communities, coordinating with government institutions, and contributing to implementation reviews that actually move the needle.

The commitments made at that table include community sensitization, evidence-based reporting, formal partnerships with Ministries, Departments and Agencies, and aligning our work with national human rights priorities. Not small things. These are the difference between a policy that exists on paper and one that changes lives.

The NAP is a tool. If your organisation works in child protection, GBV, mental health, or community welfare, it belongs in your hands.

Let’s use it intentionally.

On April 19, 2026, our CEO, Mrs Rita Oniseitan OLAJIDE-KAYODE, MSW, joined the Character Matters for Nation Building radio programme on Wells Radio 89.3 FM, Ibadan, for a deeply important dialogue on the dangers of irregular migration and trafficking in persons.

The conversation covered:
1. The desperation that drives people towards irregular migration
2. The legal frameworks in place to protect victims of trafficking
3. The hope and possibility of reintegration for returnees

The programme was hosted by Mrs Oluwatoyin Ogedengbe, CEO of Pan African Purpose-Driven Women Initiative (PAPDWI) and also featured the Oyo State Commander, National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP), Mr Alfred Kayode, bringing together voices from advocacy, law enforcement, and community support.

As a member of the Oyo State Reintegration Committee, Mrs Rita reinforced a message we hold deeply at Cascia Consult: awareness saves lives. And for those who have returned, hope is not lost.

Thank you to PAPDWI and Wells Radio for creating this platform. These are conversations our communities need to hear.

𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞.

Cascia Consult joined the Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Inclusion, the Department of Social Work, University of Ibadan, Child Protection Network Oyo, Precious Fruit Charity Foundation, and other NGOs across Oyo State, on Thursday, 16th April 2026, for a community market outreach on Gender-Based Violence prevention.

The team visited five markets across Ibadan: Sango, Agbowo, Ojoo, Akinyele, and Gbagi, engaging traders, buyers, and community members on the negative impact of GBV and the collective responsibility we all share in preventing it. Leaflets were distributed to guide community members on referral pathways, how to identify victims, and the support services available to them. Also, Yoruba, Igbo, Pidgin, Hausa and English languages were used to drive home the point at different stages of the outreach according to the specificity of the target population.

One of the highlights of the day was at Akinyele Market, where conversations were held Hausa to ensure no one was left out. The community opened up, asked questions, and were genuinely glad to receive this information.

That moment reminded us why we do this work the way we do. Meeting people where they are, in their spaces, in their language, on their terms.

Thank you to every single person who showed up with passion and energy. Days like this are a reminder that when communities and organisations come together with a shared purpose, real change is possible. 🙏

Cascia Consult served as part of the subcommittee facilitating a 3-day training for the Case Manager Expert Team (CMET), organized by the Oyo State Reintegration Committee (OSRC), sponsored by the National Commission for Refugees, Migrants and Internally Displaced Persons (NCFRMI), with support from the International Organization for Migration (IOM).

Held from March 25 to 27, 2026 at the Oyo State Local Government Training School, Ibadan, the training brought together representatives from NGOs, Civil Society Organizations, Ministries, and other key stakeholders around a shared purpose: strengthening community case management for return, readmission and reintegration, and fostering inter-agency collaboration.

Cascia Consult delivered sessions on:
1. Psychological First Aid for refugees and returnees
2. Identification of mental health challenges in reintegration contexts
3. Safeguarding and referral processes in case management

These sessions were designed not just for the returnees, but for the CMET officers and the wider community, because we believe that sustainable reintegration starts with the wellbeing of everyone involved.

We are passionate about improving the mental health of every individual, regardless of status or circumstance, and we remain committed to collaborating for outcomes that truly last.

Thank you to OSRC, NCFRMI, and IOM for this platform. The work continues. 💪
