Mise au Point 

jeunessejecoute.ca
Une autre façon d’être à l’écoute des jeunes

Que les jeunes gens soient plus réceptifs aux messages qui sont communiqués par Internet n’a rien d’étonnant. C’est ici qu’ils échangent avec leurs amis, qu’ils s’informent pour leurs travaux scolaires, qu’ils trouvent de quoi se divertir… Et, pour la nouvelle génération, Internet est aussi une ressource où l’on peut trouver de l’aide lorsqu’on a un problème, peu importe le problème. À l’heure du nouveau lancement du site jeunessejecoute.ca, notre promesse de répondre de façon pertinente et novatrice aux besoins changeants des jeunes prend tout son sens.

Les services en ligne de Jeunesse, J’écoute font peau neuve avec le lancement d’un nouveau site Web pour les jeunes. Développé en tenant compte des besoins et des compétences des jeunes technophiles d’aujourd’hui, le site jeunessejecoute.ca est la seule communauté en ligne à offrir aux jeunes un endroit où ils peuvent obtenir des services de consultation directe, grâce à l’option Pose ta question en ligne. Les jeunes peuvent aussi consulter notre kiosque d’information bien documenté qui propose de renseignements pertinents sur les questions qui les préoccupent. Des jeux informatifs et des outils interactifs d’auto-prise en charge et de développement de la résilience sont aussi offerts.

La conception et la réalisation de ce nouveau site reposent sur le cadre d’intervention de Jeunesse, J’écoute. Grâce à un processus rigoureux de développement de contenu, toutes les sections du site s’inspirent de démarches réputées donner des résultats positifs et thérapeutiques.

Deux portails donnent accès respectivement à la section des jeunes (de 8 à 11 ans) et à la section des ados (de 12 à 20 ans), afin de tenir compte de leurs différences cognitives et émotionnelles ainsi que de leurs niveaux de littératie.

Pour les jeunes, ces services en ligne présentent un autre immense avantage. Dans des situations particulièrement délicates, ceux qui sont trop timides ou effrayés pour contacter un intervenant se tourneront plus volontiers vers Jeunesse, J’écoute en ligne, une façon peu risquée d’obtenir des conseils et de l’information utile. Plusieurs jeunes nous disent que cette première expérience positive leur a donné assez de confiance pour oser demander de l’aide à un intervenant, d’abord par écrit puis par téléphone.

À l’époque où Jeunesse, J’écoute a été créée, l’idée d’offrir de l’aide aux jeunes par téléphone était toute nouvelle. Beaucoup croyaient qu’il fallait rencontrer l’enfant en personne afin de pouvoir vraiment l’aider. Néanmoins, Jeunesse, J’écoute était convaincue que les technologies pouvaient être mises à contribution pour offrir une écoute aux jeunes en difficulté. Notre site jeunessejecoute.ca redéfinit la pratique de la consultation pour les jeunes.

Gros plan sur le jeu Aucune connexion

Entre autres nouveaux éléments présentés sur le site des jeunes, des jeux captivants à visée informative incitent l'utilisateur à réfléchir sur certaines questions et à s’informer, comme le jeu Aucune connexion.

Seul en ligne est un quiz basé sur des données factuelles sur la sécurité en ligne, les gangs, l’intimidation et la cyberintimidation. Le jeu a été créé en collaboration avec le Conseil consultatif des jeunes.

« Je tenais à participer à ce projet et à apporter mes idées afin que les jeunes d’aujourd’hui soient assez bien informés pour agir dans le bon sens quand eux-mêmes ou un de leurs proches vivent des moments difficiles. » – Jason, 13 ans

Brenda called Kid’s Help Phone to vent about her parents. She said they were being unreasonable by not allowing her to meet a boy. The 15-year-old was considering sneaking out anyway. A few questions revealed that the boy was someone she’d “met” on the Internet – and that he’d first said he was 15, but was actually 29. The KHP counselor talked about Brenda’s natural curiosity, but also about possible dangers. It didn’t take long for Brenda to admit to having “funny feelings” about it. By the end of the call, she’d decided to try to find someone her own age, met the “old-fashioned” way. Mike told us he was traveling fast on the road to nowhere. He wanted to get off drugs and off the streets. The KHP counselor calmed Mike, assessed his needs, and found him a safe shelter. Years later, Mike called again. Now 20, he was back in school, with a steady job and a new life. He was calling to say thanks – not just for what KHP had done, but most of all for listening to him and believing in him. Mike says KHP helped him turn his life around. Today, he spends his spare time helping street youth. Ten-year-old Megan was being sexually and physically abused. Two nights earlier, she’d been placed in a foster home, but didn’t feel comfortable talking to her foster parents yet. With gentle prompting, Megan began to tell her story. Her feelings were agonizingly mixed. Despite everything, she missed her mom’s bedtime stories and the familiarity of home. It meant a lot to be able to talk about her feelings with someone she could trust. Together, Megan and KHP looked at what Megan could do to make things easier, like getting bedtime stories on tape. She was grateful to be reminded that her foster home would become more familiar each day, and that KHP would be there whenever she needed it in the days ahead.
