The Young Ambassadors Supporting Caregivers Program

This RCT will provide preliminary evidence on effective training for young adult volunteers to support older adult caregivers, addressing Hong Kong's aging crisis and caregiver burden. The objectives of this study include: 1. To examine the feasibility and acceptability of the interventions in Hong Kong's cultural context. 2. To evaluate the effects of three trainings (mindfulness/compassion, caregiving skills, communication skills) on young adult volunteers' preparedness for caregiving, meaning of life, and civic engagement. 3. To assess the impact of volunteer services on caregivers' depression, anxiety, and caregiver burden.
