An award-winning programme using virtual reality (VR) technology to educate secondary school students on mental health issues.
Gone are the days of boring PowerPoint-based workshops.
Our Do You M.I.N.D.? programme combines adventure-based experiential learning and immersive VR technology to educate students about mental health.
Through a three-hour workshop, we teach students the basics of mental health and provide them with practical strategies to maintain their overall well-being.
We received the outstanding award at the 2022 Wofoo Asian Awards for our innovative youth mental health outreach efforts. This prestigious recognition highlights our commitment to advancing family well-being through impactful initiatives.
The Do You M.I.N.D? programme is for students aged 13 to 17 in secondary schools (or the equivalent age category in international schools in Singapore)
We require at least 80 students to run each session.
If you’d like us to conduct this programme in your school, email us at mentalhealth@touch.org.sg to arrange a session or get further details.
Students will be divided into groups of no more than 40 (one class size). They will move through five different stations during the session.
At each station, they will learn about one of the following mental health issues or symptoms:
A highlight of our programme is the 10-minute ‘Choose Your Own Story’ VR experience, which allows students to learn more about anxiety.
