Yingshan, Sichuan: deeply cultivate and care for fertile soil to escort the growth of teenagers

Children are the future of the motherland and the hope of the nation. Since 2025, Yingshan County, Nanchong City, Sichuan Province, has closely adhered to the work policy of "being urgent for the party and government, thinking about the needs of the youth, and doing everything possible for the working committee", carefully and vigorously guarded the healthy and healthy growth of the young people in the county, and let the flowers of youth bloom in Yingshan.

According to legend, nearly a thousand "five olds" volunteers have built a growth Guardian network

Mo Dao sang Yu evening, for Xia Shang sky. In Yingshan, there is such a special group of volunteers. They are gray but hale and hearty. They are old but have a firm heart. After leaving their jobs, they still choose to run in the front line of caring for young people, warm their childlike innocence with waste heat, and pass hope with persistence. They are respectable and lovely "five old" volunteers.

On May 21, in Yingshan Xinghuo Jingbao experimental primary school, a vivid theme lecture was under way. Xie Lu, deputy director of Yingshan County customs Working Committee and director of the publicity and Culture Committee, led nearly 100 teachers and students to review the important replies from General Secretary Xi Jinping to the students of Zhijiang primary school in Jialing District word for word. In combination with fresh cases, they guided young people to set great goals, realize great virtues, become great talents and shoulder great responsibilities. The students listened carefully and were encouraged.

Xie Lu once held leadership positions in the Publicity Department of Yingshan County Party committee, the former Yingshan County Bureau of culture and sports, and the Bureau of sports for many years. After retirement, she took an active part in caring for the next generation. Even if she had surgery on her leg, she took pains to explain the responsibility and responsibility of an older Party member with practical actions.

"Comrades of the 'five elders' are politically determined, experienced, good in style and deep in feelings. They are the best guides, warmhearted people and guardians on the way to the growth of young people." luolanbo, executive director of the customs Working Committee of Yingshan County, said that the county has always insisted on building a platform and creating conditions for the' five elders' to play their role, guiding them to shine in theoretical propaganda, ideological and political education, love and assistance, rule of law publicity, family style inheritance, etc., so that the power of silver hair can continue to transmit warmth and nourish childlike innocence.

In Yingshan, like Xie Lu, there are many "five elders" who silently contribute. Ning Youkang, the executive deputy director of the customs Working Committee of the county, has been deeply involved in the work of the customs Working Committee for nearly 20 years. He has visited primary and secondary schools, towns (streets) in the county, carried out more than a thousand publicity activities, and more than 120000 people have been educated. In 2025, he won the title of the 20th "top ten five elders in Sichuan Province caring for tomorrow"; Although fuwencai, yangshanrong, zhangwenyi and other veteran cadres and Party members are over 80 years old, they still actively participate in caring activities and interpret their original intentions with perseverance.

Nowadays, Yingshan County has established a three-dimensional working pattern of "overall planning by the county Party committee, leading by the customs Working Committee, department coordination, township (street) leadership, school implementation and social participation", realizing the full coverage of the customs Working Committee organizations at the county, township (street), village (community) and school levels. "Five old" volunteers can be seen everywhere in urban and rural areas. In the campus, they became ideological and political instructors, preaching red history and inheriting the feelings of home and country; In communities and villages, they incarnate as caring elders, accompany left behind children to chat and tutor their schoolwork. The vast number of "five elders" volunteers, regardless of remuneration, make silent contributions, practice their original mission with practical actions, warm the growth journey of thousands of young people with the waste heat of silver hair, and become the warmest and brightest background in Yingshan's care for the next generation.

Bacon casts the soul, inspires wisdom, moistens the mind and leads the government to buckle the "first button" of life

Adolescence is a key stage in the formation of values, outlook on life and world outlook. Yingshan County has always put building morality and cultivating people in the first place. It adheres to guiding the direction with ideals and beliefs, infiltrating the soul with red culture, encouraging growth with the power of example, promoting ideological and political education to go deep, practical, into the mind and heart, and guiding the majority of young people to listen to the party, feel the party's kindness, and follow the party.

Deepen theme education and cultivate patriotism. Centering on patriotism, traditional virtues, civilized etiquette, gratitude and motivation, we regularly carry out educational practice activities in various forms and rich in content. On April 13, the first "Wenxuan Cup" youth patriotism reading and education activity in Yingshan County started. The theme of the activity was "drawing a new chapter in the era of the blue Atlas of reform". Through three events of essay solicitation, story telling and speech, the activity attracted the active participation of primary and secondary school students in the county. With sincere emotion and vivid language, the students tell stories about their family and country, express their ambition to serve the country, and fully display the energetic and enterprising spirit of young people in the new era.

Inherit the red gene and continue the spiritual blood. Yingshan has a profound red heritage and a large number of heroes. The county customs Working Committee has fully exploited the local red resources, carefully compiled nearly 20 red stories, established the "five elders" red propaganda group, and carried out propaganda activities in schools, villages and communities. With simple language and sincere emotion, the veteran comrades tell stories about the heroic years of the revolutionary ancestors, and tell the touching stories of heroes such as qiushaoyun and liyuanxing, so that the red story can be passed down from generation to generation and the red spirit can be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. At the same time, the 16th youth public welfare summer camp was held to enable young people to receive red education and inherit red genes in an immersive experience through activities such as red movie watching, party history learning and discussion between the old and the young, so as to establish a firm belief in strengthening the country and serving the country since childhood.

Strengthen the leading role model and cultivate a new trend of the times. Actively carry out selection activities such as "good young people in the new era", "virtuous young people" and "excellent young pioneers", deeply excavate and publicize the advanced models of the young people around, and use the power of visible and learned examples to guide the young people to respect virtue, be good and think of others. Through campus publicity, deeds sharing, theme class meetings and other forms, let the spirit of example enter the hearts of young people, promote the formation of a good atmosphere of advocating, learning and striving for the advanced, and help young people grow into new people with ideals, morality, culture and discipline.

From classroom ideological and political education to practical education, from red propaganda to typical guidance, Yingshan County adheres to the ideological guidance throughout the whole process of teenagers' growth, guides teenagers to strengthen their ideals and beliefs, temper their noble character, and calibrate the coordinates and lay a solid foundation for the course of life in a silent way.

Legal escort, warm heart, care for the whole region, make efforts to protect the healthy growth of teenagers

To protect the healthy growth of teenagers, we should not only lay a solid ideological foundation, but also strengthen the protection of rights and interests, do a solid job of caring for and helping, and protect physical and mental health. Yingshan County adheres to systematic thinking and makes efforts in all areas to promote the integration of legal education, psychological escort and help in difficult situations, so that care and care can reach the grass-roots level, the youth and the places most in need.

Education in the rule of law goes into the mind and heart to build a strong security line. In order to enhance teenagers' awareness of the rule of law and their ability to protect themselves, the county customs Working Committee, together with political, legal and education departments, continued to carry out the activity of "rule of law on campus". A few days ago, Yingshan County Procuratorate's "bosom sister" non inspection team, vice president of the rule of law and other professional forces have successively entered Huilong junior middle school and Chengbei experimental school. Focusing on campus bullying, network security, protection of minors, crime prevention and other contents, they have integrated legal knowledge into the campus life scene, and carried out legal publicity with real cases and popular language, "how to protect yourself in case of campus bullying?" "what if you get hurt on campus?" ... the students answered enthusiastically and entered their minds and hearts. According to statistics, since 2025, Yingshan County's "caring for tomorrow and law popularization first" legal publicity activities have covered nearly 10000 teachers and students, effectively supporting the "umbrella" of the rule of law for the healthy growth of teenagers.

The psychological escort is accurate and in place to protect the sunny soul. According to the psychological health needs of teenagers, the county customs Working Committee, in conjunction with the departments of education, sports, health and civil affairs, has established a "medical education community" mental health service model to promote psychological services into schools and families. Organize psychologists to go to high schools to give lectures on mental health, carry out comprehensive mental health screening for teenagers, and timely carry out psychological counseling, crisis intervention and tracking assistance for key youth groups such as school weariness, anxiety and Internet addiction, so as to help teenagers relieve pressure, adjust their emotions and grow healthily, and help them move forward with professional protection.

Caring and helping are warm and powerful, helping people realize their dreams in difficult situations. Yingshan County has always attached great importance to helping young people in trouble, improved the long-term assistance mechanism, integrated various caring resources, and solved practical difficulties with sincerity. The "Spring Bud program" has continued to make efforts. Since this year, the county women's Federation has twice granted 218400 yuan of financial aid to 94 girls with financial difficulties. Since 2021, a total of 2189800 yuan of financial aid has been sought, raised and distributed, benefiting 2220 girls in distress. The customs Working Committee of the county carried out in-depth "ten thousand one hundred ten" pairing assistance, and organized "five elders" volunteers to help nearly 600 left behind children, students with learning difficulties and students with special difficulties; We will continue to carry out the golden autumn student aid and warm winter activities, and subsidize Needy University Freshmen and rural students; The "Lujing bursary" was set up in conjunction with caring enterprises to help students with financial difficulties go to school at ease. Each township (street) customs Working Committee adheres to the precise implementation of policies, and provides comprehensive and personalized assistance to teenagers in trouble by means of policy guarantee, twinning care, psychological companionship, etc., so that every teenager can grow up in love and move forward in warmth.

Young people have aspirations, and the country is hopeful; Care for growth and never stop. "In the next step, we will continue to adhere to the original mission of educating people for the party and the country, continue to focus on the main responsibility and business, constantly strengthen the responsibility, do a good job of caring for the next generation with more firm determination, more pragmatic style and warmer measures, strive to create a better environment and provide stronger guarantee for the growth of young people, strive to write a new chapter in the high-quality development of Yingshan County's care for the next generation in the new era, and make new and greater contributions to promoting the economic and social development of the county and cultivating new people of the times who are responsible for the national rejuvenation." said the head of Yingshan customs Working Committee.
