StepStones for Youth is proud to be featured in the latest TELUS Mental Health Awareness blog:
For youth leaving the foster care system, the transition to adulthood can be marked by instability, loss and unprocessed trauma. What makes StepStones for Youth distinct in their approach is that they’re providing individualised and specialised support to a young person as they transition out of care and move into adulthood.
Here’s how StepStones for Youth’s CEO, Heather O’Keefe describes it:
“With significant experiences of abuse and neglect, many youth need mental health services far beyond traditional counselling to recover and thrive. StepStones facilitates trauma-informed supports that prioritize cultural relevance, strong connections and a sense of belonging. Our partnership with TELUS creates transformative outcomes in youth mental health.”
