He is someone that I’ve known for 20 years as a volunteer with CARE Singapore- which is Children At Risk Empowerment. Today, Dr. John recorded two seasons of podcast shows. With his voice, his experience, his message is gonna touch and change the world and help more people to understand youth and help these youths at risk. Prevention is better than cure. </p><p><br></p><p><strong>Season 2: Every Youth Matters</strong></p><p><br></p><p>(3:28-3:43) This is Dr. John Tan. I am the founding president of the Youth Work Association Singapore, as well as the Executive Director of Children At Risk Empowerment otherwise known as CARE Singapore.</p><p><br></p><p>(3:55-4:11) In Season 2 of “Every Youth Matters”, I have shared tips and strategies and ways to reach out to the young people because I have learned from my experiences and transform them into lessons.</p><p><br></p><p>(4:31-4:45) Season 2 was quite a journey for me. At the backend of it all, I would say I have succeeded in completing it. And despite the disruptions.</p><p><br></p><p>(4:47-5:18) The reason for me saying that is that we have laid up four recording days at the studio. And some of the days that we were about to record, we were interrupted to buy some renovation works that were done in the neighbors and that was a tough one because we have to time our recording around their renovation and it end up in a day where we could not record at all.</p><p><br></p><p>(5:21-5:32) The four days that were set aside we completed in actually 3 days minusing of that one day that was disrupted.</p><p><br></p><p>(5:33-5:36) So what then has taught me is that it’s possible.</p><p><br></p><p>(5:42-6:02) And this is particularly meaningful to me because it just reminds me that despite challenges we can overcome.
