Welcome to the iCARE program
iCARE is a face-to-face and an online mental health promotion program targeted at Grade 8 school students. The program aims to help the young people to:
- Be solution focused
- Take care of their own mental health and wellbeing.
- Use the power of the group to share, support and make changes
This website includes information for facilitators of the program, and includes material so that the program can be run in distance mode if needed. Through this site, the participating young people can access the Pin Board which provides a mashup to share resilience strategies. Facilitators have access to program materials, training videos and a blog for feedback. Click on the link relevant to you for more information about iCARE.
iCare Program
iCARE is made up of six modules of group work to prompt participating young people to think about how to take better care of themselves and others, and to put resilience strategies into action.
For Facilitators
iCARE facilitators are trained to deliver the program within class, with the participation of the class teacher. Facilitators are also trained to deliver the program via distance education.
