VIRUS

On 18th January this year a youth club 'Virus' was founded at Šiauliai. It is an organization for young people from secondary schools and gymnasium. Though the club has been existing only for three months, its activities are already known among schoolchildren.

Activities of the club. 'Virus' popularises healthy way of life. It encourages creating one's own system of values based on emotional origin. The members of the club share their personal experience. They seek tolerance when communicating with different people. Knowledge of young people's psychology help 'Virus' in their activities.

Steps taken by the club. On the initiative of the club on the 24th of February the youth forum 'Be free' was held. A lot of schoolchildren took part in the forum that was devoted to a problem of using drugs. They brought drawings, posters and wall stands reflecting the consequences of bad habits. The was also a vivid discussion how to solve youth problems. On the 28th of March another seminar 'In the trap of drugs' was organised.

Everyone of sixteen and older are welcome to join the club. At present there are 15 members. The club has its board, regulations, attributes and ready made project.
