Speaker: Angela Lewis Dmello from Northeast Youth and Family Services (NYCS) talked about the prevalence of children’s mental health conditions and programs that NYFS has developed to address the concerns. Our Gold Plate Dinner Fund-a-Cause will raise funds to equip and refurbish two rooms used for mental health treatment – an art room for youth and a play room for younger children. Since 1976, NYFS has worked with 10 municipalities to provide a juvenile diversion option to incarceration. They offer mental health assessment and family and couples counseling. The program is so successful that there is a 6 month waiting period for youth age 10 and under. |
