Youth Empowered Society
It’s Okay to Seek Help
Living on the streets or in unstable situations is incredibly stressful for young people. YES links youth to mental health resources, both on-site and off-site. We partner with providers like Health Care for the Homeless to offer occasional on-site counseling and wellness check-ups. We also provide referrals to youth-friendly therapists, support groups, and mental health clinics. If a young person is in crisis or needs specialized care, staff will coordinate hospital transports or connect them with emergency counseling services (e.g., through Baltimore’s crisis hotlines). Our goal is to make sure youth know it’s okay to seek help, and we strive to make that help accessible and stigma-free.
