- Abstract
Despite the popularity of mental health promotion across the globe, there is a scarcity of empirical literature from India on promotive programs for college youth. The paper is based on field observations during a research study aimed at addressing this lacuna. The paper brings to light various issues such as developing a supportive context, publicity and orientation of the potential participants as well as strategies for motivation-sustenance that are likely to influence the success of such a program. These notes from the field are expected to sensitize future researchers in the field to the issues that may be taken in account during the design and delivery of mental health promotion programs for college youth.
