Our Children, Youth and Families program strengthen AAPI families by engaging youth, and helping them succeed and thrive in their communities. Our strengths and evidence-based, culturally competent approach is supported by bilingual and bicultural AAPI counselors, who help youth grapple with the many challenges they may face as the children of immigrants and refugees, or as immigrants and refugees themselves.
We honor the cultural values, perceptions and belief systems of youth clients and their families, and treatment is personalized and driven by unique needs. Services may include individual, family and/or group therapy, crisis intervention, psychiatric evaluation, medication management, advocacy, case management, youth job readiness training, youth leadership and development groups, and prevention groups.
