MOOSE JAW — Moose Jaw is the newest community to launch free, rapid-access counselling to children and youth and their caregivers.
The launch is part of the Government of Saskatchewan's $1.7 million in new annual funding to Family Services Saskatchewan to expand its Rapid Access Counselling Program.
Young people can access support for challenges ranging from stress and depression to family conflict, addictions and domestic violence.
Children and youth will be connected to any ongoing supports they may need.
"We are excited to launch the Child and Youth Rapid Access Counselling program in Moose Jaw and surrounding areas," Moose Jaw Family Services Executive Director Tara Jones said.
"This service is designed to address the unique mental health needs of our children and youth while providing support to their families. Thanks to the funding we've received, we can offer this important service at no cost to families."
