Research to support young people's mental health and wellbeing. |

Description:
It has
been estimated that around one in five young people will experience
mental health problems during their adolescence, many of which
continue into adulthood. This research was undertaken to help
understand what young people in Northern Ireland have concerns
about - now and in their future. It also explores what helps
them cope with these issues.
The information
in this report formed the basis of the Design for Living conference
themes of creativity, knowledge of support sources and physical
activity and self-esteem as protective ways to support young
people's mental wellbeing.
