Mpower Partners BTECH for DBT Suicide Prevention

Mpower, an Aditya Birla Education Trust initiative, partners with Behavioral Tech Institute to launch an evidence‑based DBT programme in India.
The programme, supported by Marsh India CSR, begins with a DBT Intensive cohort in Mumbai involving leading hospitals and NIMHANS.
India records over 170,000 annual suicide deaths, 35‑40% among 15‑29‑year‑olds, highlighting urgent need for structured interventions.
Over the next five years Mpower aims to build a network of DBT‑trained clinicians across public and private health institutions by 2030.
