Over 60 Practitioners Participate in Training to Expand Youth Mental Health Support System

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Saeyan] Changwon City, Gyeongnam Province, will operate the 'Youth Safety Net Linked Institution Practitioner Training (Practitioner Training)' to expand the youth mental health support system in four sessions starting from July 1.

This practitioner training will be conducted through online video lectures, with about 60 practitioners from youth-related institutions in the area participating.

The Changwon Youth Counseling Welfare Center and Changwon Mental Health Welfare Center will jointly conduct the training.

The four sessions will cover understanding and coping with youth digital sexual violence, understanding child and adolescent ADHD, the practitioner burnout prevention program 'Mindfulness,' and counseling techniques for children and adolescents.

It is expected that the responsible practitioners will exchange information to strengthen the coping capabilities of practitioners in youth-related institutions in the area and contribute to activating the youth safety net linkage.

Jang Gyusam, Director of the Childcare and Youth Division, said, "We expect this practitioner training to be of great help to youth institution practitioners and youth counselors (teachers) in early detection and support of youths experiencing psychological difficulties."
