The public institution Klaip\u0117da City Municipality Open Youth Center, together with partners, is implementing the Youth Affairs Agency's project \u201eJUNGTYS\u201c, which will be implemented until 2028. February 29. The goal of the project is to reduce the number of inactive young people by providing comprehensive assistance to young people with fewer opportunities and young people belonging to the NEET group (not educated, unemployed and not in training).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The project aims to help young people overcome the challenges they face, strengthen their personal and social competences, increase motivation and create conditions for returning to the education system or successfully integrating into the labor market. The implemented intervention and prevention measures are adapted to the individual needs of each young person, so participants receive not only professional assistance, but also consistent support throughout their participation in the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The project also contributes to reducing social exclusion and poverty by developing young people's independence, social and life skills, strengthening their self-confidence and ability to actively participate in public life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A wide range of free services are provided to project participants. Young people can participate in group activities that develop personal, interpersonal and professional competencies, use self-awareness, motivation, social and life skills development services. Consultations on educational and employment opportunities are also provided, mediation is provided in communication with employers and educational institutions, and mentoring and accompaniment services are ensured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Depending on individual needs, project participants can receive assistance from a psychologist, lawyer, employment specialist, healthcare specialist, addiction counselor, tutor and other specialists. If necessary, individual activity plans are drawn up, and compulsory health insurance premiums are paid for NEET group participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Klaip\u0117da City Municipality Open Youth Center is successfully implementing the project activities. During this year alone, 36 young people have already joined the project, and some of them have already managed to find employment. This shows that individual work, consistent support and professional assistance help young people discover their strengths, gain self-confidence and take the first steps towards independent living.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Currently, the project \u201eJUNGTYS\u201c employs two youth workers - case coordinators, as well as a music therapist and a dance-movement therapist. All services provided in the project are free of charge for participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you know a young person who currently lacks motivation, direction, or help in finding a job, continuing their education, or solving everyday challenges, we invite you to contact the Klaip\u0117da City Municipality Open Youth Center and take advantage of the opportunities provided by the \u201eJUNGTYS\u201c project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
