Program content<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The work of an experienced confidant with young people combines emotional support, empowerment, and guidance. A confidant helps young people to cope better with themselves, their relationships with others, and other aspects of life (school, leisure activities). A confidant helps young people through spending time together consistently<\/strong> develop self-regulation skills and hope for a better future. The role of the trusted person is to act as a bridge between the young person and other adults\/specialists, i.e. to help encourage the young person to accept support and assistance from other specialists (e.g. child protection services, therapists, school staff, etc.) if necessary.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n

Experienced trustees<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Young adults (aged 19-39) who have experienced difficulties in life, i.e., who have engaged in high-risk behavior at some point. An experienced mentor is a trained and supported young person who, in turn, offers support to other young people through understanding and sharing their experiences that led to change. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An experienced confidant has gone through difficult periods in their own life, which means they are better able to understand young people, gain their trust, and act as a bridge to other necessary support services.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Through consistent<\/strong> support of a trusted person, young people strengthen their self-regulation skills, grow in confidence in themselves and others, including specialists, and improve their relationships with family and friends \u2013 which helps to reduce risky behavior.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n
