This project is expected to establish a network of resilient young people with good anti-drug knowledge to mobilize them to assist in current or future anti-drug work, expanding the antidrug capacity of our community. After the project, it is also anticipated that people in this network will continue to assist in the anti-drug work.
In phase 1, the investigators will deliver adventure-based training programs (2-day 1-night camp). Participants will attend in the educational workshop and undergo five adventure-based activities. The key educational workshop's topics include: 1) introduction to the drugs, health and legal consequences of drugs especially cocaine, cannabis and ice, 2) anti-drug services, and 3) the AWARD model.

The Chinese version of the 14-item resilience scale
The 14-item resilience scale (RS-14) was used to assess the degree of resilience and was a short version of the original resilience scale (RS). The RS-14 was a 14-item and single-factor structure instrument, comprising a 7-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree). Examples of the items were, "I feel that I can handle many things at a time" and "I keep interested in things". The Chinese translation of the RS-14 was developed with a backtranslation procedure to ensure accuracy. Suitable internal consistency was suggested by a figure of .917 for the coefficient alpha (regarding the RS-14 of the original scale). Further, the original RS-14 was retested after three weeks, and the test-retest reliability of RS-14 was .736 (.595, .837).
