SUMMARY:A Heartwarming Moment of Intergenerational Connection- SAGE Madam Ho Sin Hang Home for the Elderly
DESCRIPTION:When a young person in Hong Kong is struggling\, they are far more likely to turn to a friend than to an adult. According to KELY Support Group’s 2022 Youth Mental Health Survey\, 62% of young people aged 14–24 prefer to seek help from their peers — yet nearly 60% do not reach out to anyone at all when facing mental health challenges. That quiet gap — between the people young people trust and the support they do not access — is where meaningful peer‑led initiatives can make a difference. It is also where the Talk2Me Peer Supporter Training Certificate Programme began. Supporting Talk2MePeak II Foundation is pleased to support KELY Support Group’s Talk2Me programme\, with funding that will enable its delivery across 20 secondary schools over two academic years. The programme equips secondary school students to become peer support ambassadors through ten hours of interactive learning across five modules. These modules cover common youth challenges\, self‑awareness\, active listening\, healthy boundaries\, self‑care\, and — critically — how to guide peers toward professional support when needed. Talk2Me does not ask young people to become counsellors. Instead\, it helps them recognise when to listen\, when to care\, and when to encourage someone to seek further help — skills that are as practical as they are human. Why Talk2Me Resonates with Peak II FoundationPeak II Foundation was founded on the belief that every young person deserves the opportunity to build confidence and shape their own future. Talk2Me brings that belief into practice by meeting young people where they are\, and trusting their capacity to support one another with care and responsibility. KELY’s programme evaluation reflects this impact. Following the training\, 98% of participating students reported recognising the importance of all emotions\, 100% demonstrated improved communication and active listening skills\, and 96% felt confident applying these skills to support their peers. Numbers matter — but what stood out most during a recent site visit was something harder to capture through data alone. Students who were still midway through the training had taken the initiative to organise a mental wellness promotion booth at their school. With encouragement from a teacher who clearly trusted their judgement\, they stepped forward — not because they were told to\, but because they believed they could make a difference. That kind of ownership is often where peer‑led support takes root. A Shared CommitmentKELY Support Group has been supporting the mental wellbeing of young people in Hong Kong since 1991. We are grateful for the opportunity to stand alongside their work\, and to learn with them as Talk2Me continues to reach more schools\, teachers\, mentors\, and students over the coming two years. To the peer mentors\, educators\, social workers — and especially the students who bring this programme to life — thank you.Every conversation matters. And sometimes\, the first step toward support begins simply with being willing to listen.  當支持從信任開始支持「啟勵扶青會」Talk2Me 計劃 當一位年青人在香港面對困難時，他們往往更願意向朋友傾訴，而不是向成年人求助。根據啟勵扶青會於2022年進行的青少年精神健康調查，62% 14 至 24 歲的年輕人表示，遇到問題時會優先向朋輩尋求支援；然而，接近六成受訪者在面對精神健康挑戰時，並沒有向任何人求助。 這段介乎「信任的人」與「尚未被接上的支援」之間的空間，正是朋輩支援可以發揮關鍵作用的地方。 而 「Talk2Me 計劃」，正是在這個位置出現。  支持 Talk2Me計劃崇嶺基金會很高興支持啟勵扶青會（KELY Support Group）的 Talk2Me 計劃。相關資助將協助計劃於未來兩個學年，在 20 間中學 推行。 Talk2Me 透過五個模組、合共十小時的互動學習，培訓中學生擔任朋輩支援大使。課程內容包括： 認識青少年常見的成長挑戰建立自我覺察與情緒理解學習積極聆聽與有效溝通設定健康界線與自我照顧在合適時機，引導朋友尋求專業支援Talk2Me 並非以學生作為輔導員，而是協助他們理解自己的角色與界線，學會在關心他人的同時，懂得適時轉介。這些能力看似簡單，卻是在現實生活中極其重要的支持基礎。  為何 Talk2Me 與崇嶺基金會的使命產生共鳴崇嶺基金會成立的信念，是相信每一位年青人都值得被信任，也應有機會建立自信，為自己的未來作出選擇。Talk2Me 正正把這份信念轉化為實踐——在肯定年輕人能力的同時，也培養他們以負責任和具界線的方式關心他人。 根據啟勵扶青會的評估，完成訓練後： 98% 的學生認同情緒本身並無對錯100% 掌握了有效溝通及積極聆聽技巧96% 表示有信心把相關技巧應用於支援朋輩而在最近一次校園探訪中，最令人印象深刻的並非數據，而是一幕難以量化的畫面—— 仍在接受培訓的學生，自發在校內設立心理健康推廣攤位；而身旁的老師選擇信任他們、支持他們嘗試。正是在這樣被信任的時刻，朋輩支援真正開始紮根。  一份共同的承擔啟勵扶青會自 1991 年成立以來，一直致力支援香港年青人的精神健康。我們十分珍惜能夠參與並支持他們的工作，亦期待在未來兩年，與啟勵扶青會一同見證 Talk2Me 走進更多校園，接觸更多教師、社工與學生。 在此，我們向每一位朋輩支援大使、教育工作者、社工——以及最重要的年青人——致以衷心感謝。 每一次願意聆聽的對話，都是支持的開始。
