What is FRIENDS for Life?
FRIENDS for Life is an internationally recognised programme that teaches children and young people techniques to cope with anxiety and promote wellbeing, social and emotional skills and resilience.
FRIENDS for Life is the only programme of its kind endorsed by the World Health Organisation as 'efficacious across the entire spectrum, as a universal prevention program, as a targeted prevention program and as a treatment.'
Research on the programme shows reduced anxiety and depression, increased coping skills and self-esteem, with improvements maintained up to 6 years after the completion of the programme.
