ROAD Youth Recovery is a drop-in program for individuals ages 16 – 29 dealing with mental health and/ or substance abuse issues. This unique program empowers its members by creating a youth-led and youth-voiced environment, meaning all participating members are given an opportunity to share their ideas and vote on decisions. Participants will cultivate valuable life skills, opportunities, and confidence that will aid in their overall recovery. Using the evidence-based Resiliency Theory, members are guided through a variety of activities by- youth-for-youth, including weekly topics of discussion, aimed to meet their recovery needs.
