Youth & Family Mentoring and Job Development
Youth and Family Services offers therapeutic mentoring for teens who are either transitioning from a higher level of care or are working on interpersonal and life skills in the community and/or school. Teens begin by discussing areas of concern and establishing positive, achievable goals with their mentor. Once established, teens will continue to meet with their mentor 3-5 hours per week while continuing to promote independence.
Job Development and Workforce Coordination
We offer job development and workforce coordination for teens needing assistance with applying, preparing for, interviewing, obtaining, and maintaining employment. This service addresses job readiness and employment support, recreational activities, cultural enrichment, and referral for high-risk teens in need of community-based services. Teens may also meet individually with mentors to discuss issues and establish positive, achievable goals.
