Abstract
Systematic literature review revealed that there are few validated youth prevention and positive youth development programs in different Chinese societies. To promote holistic development of young people in Hong Kong, we developed, implemented and evaluated the P.A.T.H.S. Project in Hong Kong. Based on the successful experience of the P.AT.H.S. Project in Hong Kong, Tin Ka Ping Foundation supported the development of Tin Ka Ping P.A.T.H.S. Project in mainland China based on the original P.A.T.H.S. programs. Besides adapting the programs to fit the socio-cultural context of mainland China, we also trained teachers, supported the implementation, and evaluated the developed programs. Besides the junior high school programs, we also voluntarily deployed additional financial and manpower resources to develop senior high school programs. To help colleagues understand the project details, we have documented the project, including curriculum manuals, book chapters, journal articles and conference papers. In this chapter, we present the publications arising from Tin Ka Ping Project in mainland China.
