WHO IS ELIGIBLE FOR OUR SERVICES?

We generally serve youth and young adults ages 8-24 years old, as well as provide family services. If you don’t fall into this category, we are happy to help direct you to the services that can help you.

We are easily accessible, non-judgmental and speak Spanish. We also commit to the confidentiality of our clients, so you can feel comfortable opening up to us.
