LEARN ·2024 Grants ChallengeHealing TAYgather: Mental Health Services for Foster Youth
Healing TAYgather is a new program that uses Peer Support Specialists to address the mental health challenges of youth in our Transitional Housing Placement Program, ages 18-24. Peer Specialists have shared, lived experience with our youth, including mental health challenges and involvement in the child welfare system. Peer Specialists can connect with youth on a personal level and establish bonds that would not be possible with traditional therapists, producing positive outcomes.
