Through FE-ARTY we intend to present the different forms of art therapy that are carried out by involving young people with mental health problems, in order to promote and disseminate this discipline to stimulate young people to quickly undertake treatment for mental illness. For young people with mental health problems, art therapy can represent a more inclusive and less “institutionalizing” mode of intervention than that offered by the Departments for Mental Health, using the artistic resources and creative processes for therapeutic, educational, prevention, rehabilitation and personal development purposes.
