Groups
Creative Support Youth Group
Creative Support is an activity and art-based peer support group for youth ages 14-17 who may be struggling with substance use, looking for an accepting community, or those who simply don't have a consistent, safe place to de-stress. The group creates a non-judgmental space for youth to engage in fun, drug-free, creative projects and groups activities. Youth can hang with like-minded teens, be their authentic selves, and have their peers and a therapist there to support them. This group is free and provided on a drop-in basis.
