  • Trauma counseling helps

    For anyone who has experienced trauma, it is important to seek ongoing treatment with a mental health professional. Even if symptoms don’t appear right away, they can show up over time without the proactive support of compassionate counseling.

    When symptoms do emerge and are left untreated, they can worsen over time and have a significant impact on a young person’s life. If you have experienced trauma and are unsure about the best ways to move forward,

      • Re-entering the community
        Re-entering the community after jail time is no easy task. After being released, young people often struggle to find a place in society and require critical services and supports. They may benefit from programs to help rebuild family relationships, reintegrate into school and access public benefits, housing and employment.
        • Family & community-based treatment

          Whether you are a young person looking for help or someone who is concerned about a young person, there are local organizations that can provide assistance for mental health and substance use. Taking support beyond a traditional office setting can be beneficial for some people.

          Community-based treatment allows families to access high-quality services for mental health and substance use with few barriers. Family-based treatment allows those seeking help to get treatment safely in their community alongside their families.

          • Find an Overdose Kit in Stark County

            Overdose kits include Narcan (naloxone) nasal spray that reverses the effects of opiate overdose. Once administered, it can quickly restore breathing, reverse the effects of opioids, and prevent death. (It’s harmless if given to someone not having an opiate overdose.)

            With the rise in the use of opioids in Stark County, you should know where you can get an overdose kit. This is especially true if someone you know is using opioid drugs—you may save their life.

                Mental Health Assumptions: Fact or Fiction?

                Despite all the information available about anxiety, depression, addiction and other mental health issues, many misconceptions persist.

                Mental health misconceptions can be dangerous when they keep people from getting the treatment they need. Let’s talk about mental health issues and learn to separate fact from fiction. What are some common misconceptions about mental health?

                  It’s National Mentoring Month and there’s no better time to tell you how being a mentor changed my life! I have learned from the perspectives of young people. I have witnessed firsthand systemic racism and inequity. I have experienced the roadblocks that get in the way of accessing community resources. I have become a better listener and less judgmental. And I have seen how young people can lead the way, if given a voice and an opportunity.
