The aim of the project is to provide quality and accessible youth-friendly health care services that meet the needs and to encourage young people to choose a healthier lifestyle in the territories of the municipalities of the project (Raseiniai, Klaipėda distr., Akmenė). Achieving the intended goal will provide young people (14-29 years old) with confidential services that help to strengthen their physical and mental health, contribute to the promotion of healthy lifestyles in order to reduce the incidence of young people's illnesses and address young people's concerns in a targeted way.
The main activities will be carried out during the project implementation
- implementation of JPSPP model algorithms in Raseiniai, Akmenė and Klaipeda district municipalities;
- employing a coordinator and psychologist in each municipality and organizing supervisions,
- inter-institutional cooperation and youth trainings / events.
Investing in health care promotes a healthy lifestyle and reduces the risk of disease, and it is likely that health care spending will fall in the future as fewer diseases are diagnosed more quickly. Organizing events for young people will promote social communication, the lack of which is felt in the target municipalities, due to low youth employment and lack of events. During the events, communication with new people will be encouraged, and educational activities will be carried out. These project activities will not only disseminate information on the activities of the JPSPP Coordination Center, but also ensure social communication between young people, and ensure inter-institutional cooperation and the dissemination and sharing of knowledge and information through the participation of various institutions.
