Provides intensive individualized services to children in their homes, school, and community through YAP Behavioral Health Services. Though each youth’s plan is different, YAP works to build upon the existing strengths of the child and family; develop the young person and family’s skills in self-managing areas of need; and connect the family to professional and informal resources in their community that provide support beyond program involvement as needed and desired by the family.
