Fei Yue Community Services has been appointed by the Central Youth Guidance Office (CYGO) to run the second pilot of the Youth GO! Programme (YGP). This is a youth street outreach programme that supports at-risk youths so that they will be meaningfully engaged in their studies or work, stay crime-free, and be able to solve problems and be resilient individuals.
Street Outreach
Youth workers make contact with youths in the neighbourhoods by going onto the streets to get to know and befriend them. Youths are informed of the services that exist in their locality, and social workers identify any needs or risk behaviours for appropriate intervention.
Programmes
Activities such as fishing, night cycling and barbeques are organized by youth workers in order to engage and build rapport with the youths, model positive behaviours, and impart life skills.
Information and Referral
Youths who are in distress, facing issues, or need assistance in any way can obtain the services or resources they require.
Hotspot referral
Our social workers and youth workers outreach to youths, aged 12 to 21, on the streets in these areas and engage them for further intervention work through activities, group-work and casework. This is one effective way of engaging youth as their receptivity towards us is higher.
The more information we have about the hanging out frequency, location (hotspot) and time would determine the success of engaging the youth. Our team currently outreaches on 4 slots each week: Tuesdays and Wednesdays (3pm to 6pm)Thursdays and Fridays (3pm to 10pm)
Casework Services
Youths can seek professional counselling help and support services regarding their personal issues, and be assisted by youth workers in dealing and coping with their challenges. The worker may also work holistically and systemically with the youths’ school and family to effect change.
