Program overview
The North Star Child and Youth Advocacy Centre (CAYAC)
The Janeway partnered with other agencies to establish The North Star Child and Youth Advocacy Centre in Newfoundland and Labrador, to support young people who have experienced or witnessed abuse. The Centre has suspended operations pending changes to its service delivery model; we hope to reopen it as soon as possible.
The Tuckamore Centre
A residential treatment facility for youth aged 12 – 18 from across Newfoundland and Labrador with complex mental health needs. Established in 2016, it offers a safe, home-like environment, along with an on-site school, a multipurpose room, a physical fitness area, and accommodations for family overnight visits.
Hospital-Based Mental Health & Addictions Programming
Outpatient programs in particular benefit from donor support, which helps them acquire resources such as sensory items and clinically vetted, youth-friendly literature. These tools and resources are vital for programs’ smooth functioning, and contribute to positive outcomes for patients and families.
How Family of Support Funding Has Helped
By offering flexible funding, Family of Support has helped to ensure that:
- The Janeway’s Mental Health & Addictions program can continue to meet the needs of children and youth in a variety of settings – in the hospital and beyond.
- More young people have access to early interventions that can profoundly affect how their mental health evolves, preventing emerging concerns from reaching the point of crisis.
