Original: From illness to hope: mental health at the heart of the Ebola response

Its message, 'From illness to hope', stresses that survivors, families and frontline health workers need mental health and psychosocial support as part of outbreak response. The agency frames emotional recovery as essential to rebuilding lives in affected communities.
