Project Reachout is staffed by a Licensed Psychotherapist, and Case Manager. After the initial intake is done, we provide resources to ensure that these young people receive counseling, medical care, housing, food and clothing. The youth we serve are vulnerable, hungry and in danger of losing hope in their future. Through contacts with schools, park staff, police, and parents, we provide opportunities for them to have a chance at a better life. Staff facilitate support groups with teachers from the high school s Drug Free Impact Program.
Students meet weekly to share their thoughts, experiences, and problems.
In addition, Bridge Focus established an affiliation with the national Youth As Resources program, sponsored by the National Crime Prevention Council. Counseling Bridge Focus Family Resource Services began providing counseling to the people of the San Fernando Valley in 1970. Since that time, we have helped thousands of individuals, couples, and families to cope with the stresses in their lives and to strengthen their relationships. Therapy is provided by trainees and interns in Master s Programs in Marriage and Family Therapy or doctoral programs in Psychology. In addition we work closely with the Departments of Children s and Family Services and Probation to address the issues presented by their families in need.
