- introduce students to public speaking
- reduce negative attitudes and prejudices associated with mental illness

MHI’s Public Speaking Project has been very successful for many years. A recent evaluation of the project confirmed the following benefits:
- self confidence
- rapport and relationship with parents and fellow students
- encouragement of social awareness and values
- career motivation
- success at interviews and examinations
- broader understanding and appreciation of the concerns of disadvantaged groups and social problems
- school and community co-operation and sense of pride and achievement
- research methods and topic analysis
Good luck to all with the project !
