Life for Youth

Project Description

The “Life for Youth” project aims to promote the social integration of young people at risk of
drug addiction aged between 14 and 30. The Bonus Pastor Foundation and the Hungarian
Reformed Church’s Wandering Youth Rescue Mission (MRE KIMM) are participating as
partners in the implementation of the “Life for Youth” project. Both organizations specialize
in different areas of drug prevention among young people. Bonus Pastor contributes its
experience in the field of life coaching, while KIMM brings its experience in applying the
Portage model. Sixteen employees of the two institutions participate in joint courses, where
they share their professional experiences in the two fields.
Based on the training results, a joint curriculum will be developed to provide effective support
to drug prevention organizations and specialists working with young people in this field. The
common curriculum will be extensively tested by the partner organizations among the target
group, both during the development process and after its finalization. 150 young people will
participate in the testing in Romania and Hungary.
The newly developed curriculum will be presented at a conference for institutions and
specialists working in general with young people or in drug prevention, where the two partner
organizations will share their experiences with those interested.
