「濫用藥物」工作坊
青少年對新事物充滿好奇，在成長時期特別容易因扺擋不住誘惑而吸食毒品。毒品對人生造成莫大的傷害，為此，「Teen使行動 – 青少年思健推廣計劃」由成立開始已將反吸毒列為每年的工作坊課題，教導學生如何拒絕毒品的誘惑。 由葵涌醫院精神科副顧問醫生張偉謙醫生主講的「濫用藥物」工作坊已在三月一日舉行。張醫生向各參加「Teen使行動」的同學講解毒品的種類及它們對人體的傷害，特別提及這些毒品如何對腦部造成永久傷害，藉以提升同學防止濫藥的意識，助他們遠離毒品。

Health in Mind Students Promote Mental Wellbeing in Schools
Health in Mind student advocates are organizing a range of in-school activities this year to help spread mental health knowledge and promote mental wellbeing, social inclusion and re-integration.

More than 50 in-school activities will be held, including drama, slogan writing, singing and shirt design competitions and talks on mental health. All these activities will have a mental health theme.

Volunteer services also play a major role in the Health in Mind programme. The activities will include visits to outdoor centres such as the Wetland Park and Mai Po marshes. Thirty volunteer activities will be held this year.

"Volunteer services have proven to be an effective means of changing students' attitudes towards people with mental illness," explained Francis Woo, Senior Nursing Officer (Psychiatric) of Hospital Authority - Kwai Chung Hospital. "They promote social inclusion and re-integration. We often find that the students who participate in these activities become much more confident about involving themselves with people with mental health problems."

「Teen使行動」在學校推廣精神健康知識
參與「Teen使行動 – 青少年思健推廣計劃」的同學籌劃了一系列校內活動，介紹精神健康的知識，推廣精神保健，宣傳社會接納及共融。

年內舉辦的五十多項校內活動包括話劇、標語設計、歌唱、T-Shirt設計比賽及講座等，均以精神健康作主題。

義工服務亦在今年的「Teen使行動」中扮演著重要角色。學生參加了三十多個這類活動，包括陪同復康人士探訪戶外地點，如濕地公園及米浦自然保護區等。

義工服務有助學生改變對精神病患者的態度。葵涌醫院高級護士長胡子正解釋：「這些活動有助推廣社會接納及共融。我們發現，在參與這些活動後，學生往往變得更有自信。」
