The Mental Health Outreach Team supports children and youth (under the age of 19) who have significant emotional and mental health issues. The referred child/youth is queried or formally diagnosed with a mental disorder and is displaying high risk behaviours, placing them, family members or the school community in unsafe situations. The program works with the child/youth and supports the family and the school community in which the child/youth resides.
Referrals are made by contacting the Mental Health Outreach Team Program Manager at 250-383-4821.
Our Thrive team acknowledges that our agency stands and works on the unceded Lək̓ʷəŋən territory of the Songhees and Esquimalt Nations. We also acknowledge the five W̱SÁNEĆ communities: W̱JOȽEȽP (Tsartlip), BOḰEĆEN (Pauquachin), SȾÁUTW̱,(Tsawout) W̱SIKEM (Tseycum) and MÁLEXEȽ (Malahat), as well as the Sc'ianew (Beecher Bay), T’Sou-ke, and Pacheedaht Nations and the Spune’laxutth’ (Penelekut) tribe where our work extends. We are committed to acknowledging our relationship with these unceded lands and communities, at staff and Board meetings, and during our hosted events. We encourage the evolving learning and awareness of our staff, Board, and the Thrive community, discovering and striving for meaning and personal connection within each acknowledgement.
