The queen spoke to Dagens Nyheter in Washington
Drugs were the subject of the Queen's visit to Washington on Tuesday, as part of the Mentor Foundation, which she co-founded in 1994. The organization is in several countries and works against drugs and to strengthen young people and their self-esteem. In Washington, they work with a hundred mentors in secondary schools in disadvantaged areas. During the visit, the Queen was given the opportunity to listen to several students' stories about their own experiences with drugs, and she says she was very moved by them:
- It was the third time I visited Cesar Chavez School since 2010. It is amazing to see how young people grow when you take care of them. Many live in difficult conditions and lack role models. When you talk with them, you notice how important it is that they have someone to talk to. Their parents do not always have the time or have their own problems. But it is not just young people who grow, but also teachers and mentors.
The contact between the student and mentor progresses with frequent meetings during a year's time.
- Unfortunately, drugs are readily available, but if you strengthen young people's self-esteem, it may be easier to resist group pressure, says Queen Silvia.
