YAP needs your support! A donation of any size can help YAP Make Change Happen for more youth like Ivan who at age 15 was struggling with depression & behavior issues. His family felt overwhelmed until Ivan found life-changing, culturally responsive services delivered at home from his YAP mental health professional Jenny, who could relate to his struggles. Now Ivan is thriving in school & is equipped with coping strategies for his behavioral health challenges. Read more about Ivan here: https://loom.ly/56AHWgU YOU can help more youth get services at home with their families as an alternative to residential care, incarceration, or other out-of-home placements by making a year-end gift TODAY. Visit yapinc.org/donate and make a difference.
