Services for Youth

The youth advocate at Rivers of Hope work with middle and high-school-aged students experiencing family or teen dating violence. Services are offered to ELEMENTARY-AGED students on a case-by-case basis.

Services offered by the youth program include:

  • One-on-one advocacy and counseling in school-based settings, including ongoing safety planning and social-emotional skill development

  • Trauma-informed interventions focused on finding safety and guided by client-identified needs

  • Classroom presentations focused on healthy relationships and identifying warning signs of dating violence

Working in collaboration with schools and community groups, our Advocates meet with students to offer support, education, and referrals to community resources. Through education and empowerment, the youth program helps youth move beyond violence to healthy relationships.
