Learn to Dare! Leiden
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Childhood Anxiety, Shyness
In brief
Research shows that many children face anxiety and stress related problems. However, as much as 70-80% of children do not receive help. The aim of this project is to offer a training for children who are hindered by their shyness or fears, so that all children can develop freely without being held back and so that the risk of escalation of fear and stress in the long term can be prevented. In this project the prevention training 'Learn to Dare!' will be offered to children between the ages of 8 and 18 where the long-term outcomes and the program itself will be evaluated for attractiveness and satisfaction. With the evidence-based program 'Learn to Dare!\' children between the ages of 8 and 12 learn to stand up for themselves in a safe environment, to face the situations that they find exciting and to be more confident in their own abilities. This project aims to adapt the program so that it can be available up to and including 18 years in the future.
