The project seeks a solution to the mental problems tormenting teenagers by developing the teachers and support professionals who deal with them. The main goal is to create a widely accessible toolkit (e-guidebook) for professionals dealing with teenagers, and to present training methods that can be easily applied in European schools. Our goal is to make our methods available to as many schools as possible, thanks to which our teenagers can become more balanced, happier and more motivated.

We work on 3 content related WP that are connected. Within this frame partners will do the following activities focusing on the mental health development of teanegers, teachers and helpers: - developing/conducting a self-assessment questionnaire (for teanegers/teachers); - workshop using the previous SUPREM materials; - training for teachers; - development of an e-guidebook; - 2 workshops for students; - conference for teachers and helpers; - exhibition (on-line, on-site); - performance.

We can call our project successful if the workshops we organize and the developed methodological guidebooks together help to find solutions for today's adolescent students to the problems revealed by the questionnaires and tests. The real result means that the products of the elaborated project reach the teachers and assistants working in schools as widely as possible in the way we multiply: dissemination, conference, exhibition, performance.
