Mission

Major Activities

Activity 2

Out client services - counseling services are provided to youth ages 6-21 and their families, and are offered in school, home and office settings. Priority is given to victims of violence and abuse, juvenile law offenders, youth experiencing school failure, youth with symptoms of severe emotional disturbance, and youth and families experiencing severe chronic conflict and families unable to secure professional counseling with insurance. Counseling consists of 1) problem assessments and crisis intervention consultations, 2) brief, solution-focused family therapy, 3) on-going individual and group therapy when brief therapy has not sufficiently resolved issues, and 4) planning and linking with other community services as indicated in the service plan. During 2011, 3,450 youth and family members were served.

Activity 3

Community youth development - street outreach and out-of-school time programs - these programs identify youth at risk of homelessness, violence, and failing to complete high school to link them to community resources and directly provide them education, support, and activities to promote positive development. During 2011, the community youth development program served 11,563 youth. Safe place is a local component of a national program. It brings businesses and volunteers together to provide help and safety to children and teens facing abuse, neglect or serious family problems and educates young people about the dangers of running away. During 2011 project safe place served 235 individuals.
