The data shows that untill the year 2020 depression will become the leading cause of disease in the developed world (World Health Report, 2011). It is also the most common problem among young people aged between 10 and 19 years. Suicide is one of the top three causes of death. Also in Slovenia a big public health problem that is standing out is suicide, also among young people. Good MH during adolescence and childhood is the base of good and positive MH in adulthood. That is why is urgent for us to prepare some new approaches for young people with MH to make their life better and healthier and that many of problems that are occurring often in the population of young with MH could be prevented. We are seeking better participation of young people in the programs that we are already having and also to improve those one with more innovative methods of work especially for young. That is why we are pursuing these goals:- To educate professional workers so we can develop better program dedicated to young people with MH problems up to 30 years- To see good experiences and practices in other similar organizations so we can implement good work here- To improve the knowledge and competences of professional workers from all partner organizations in order to work better with young with MH problems- To cooperate with other organizations working with young people and to transfer best practices from partner countries to Slovenia - make better service for young people with MH problems,- invite young people to greater cooperationBy pursuing those goals we will resolve the greater one which is better physical and mental health of young people. This will be done through the following activities: study visit, discussion meeting and round table all prepared for professionals working with young with MH. All of these will lead to better knowledge of those professional. Better knowledge and experiences of professionals will bring better service for those in needs, especially for young that are having special needs. Better service is the key to invite younger with MH to participate more in organizational activities as they are intended exactly to prevent and alleviate the problems.
