An evidence-based program deisgned to teach youth to develop coping mechanisms for stress and anxiety.
More than 120 Regina Grade 4 and 6 students have been given some new "FRIENDS" to help them better cope with stress, as part of a pilot program in Regina Public Schools. The Regina Qu'Appelle Health Region and Regina Public Schools teamed up this school year to offer an innovative pilot program to 122 students in Grades 4 and 6, giving them tools to help reduce and better manage stress, anxiety and depression. The program is funded by the RBC Foundation through its five-year Believe in Kids pledge. "Children are experiencing more stress, and this can lead to physical and mental health problems," said Robert Stephenson, RQHR psychologist and Regina FRIENDS pilot project coordinator. "The FRIENDS program equips kids with coping tools at an early age, so they can be more successful in dealing with situations as they arise, hopefully preventing significant difficulties later in life." FRIENDS is an acronym for the skills and lessons emphasized in the program: -Feelings -Remember to relax -I can try! I can do my best! -Explore coping plans and solutions -Now reward yourself -Don't forget to practice -Smile and stay calm for life
