Taraki works with Punjabi communities to reshape approaches to mental health. The movement was founded in October 2017 by Shuranjeet Singh after his personal experiences with mental health challenges as a student. Shuranjeet felt incredibly lucky as he was supported through his struggles by his friends. However, he observed that many facing mental health challenges within Punjabi communities were unable to access adequate support.


Taraki envisions that Punjabi communities perceive and embrace mental health as an integral facet of their lives. We hope that Punjabi communities will engage in conversations, support, and care for their mental well-being at an individual and collective level. We want to see an environment which enables mental health awareness, education, support, and research centred on autonomy and community knowledge, working across intersections of culture, faith, and other markers of identity.
