Activities include open drop-in hours with both structured and unstructured activities and access to certified youth peer specialists daily. Peer specialists also plan group social activities and outings to engage youth in the center and encourage young adults to bring others to the center. The goal of these activities is to create a safe, supportive environment offering formal and informal support to a range of young adults in the community. Targeted Case Management, Peer Support, and Referral: These services target up to 30 young adults and up to 20 parents/caregivers who identify individualized recovery, self-advocacy, or wellness goals that agree to work in partnership with a certified peer specialist to achieve these goals. Services may include group trainings, workshops, and support group meetings, as well as individualized referral to behavioral health services, public benefits, housing, job training, or other opportunities identified by center participants. The overarching goal is to provide mutual support, self-help, advocacy, education, information, and referral to young adults and families with behavioral health needs to help them to achieve their goals and vision of wellness.
