Youth Services

Young people that come to Boyle Street, usually ages 16-24, face challenges most people never face.  Sexual and emotional abuse, abandonment, low self-esteem and a life on the street are not unusual.  We begin by helping to develop a safety plan (a way to address immediate needs) and then begin to identify longer-term goals.  We do this in a separate youth drop-in, where recreation and a quiet place help the conversation.
