Para jóvenes y familias

Brindamos una variedad de programas y servicios diseñados para educar, cuidar, invertir y defender a los jóvenes de nuestra comunidad, incluido preescolar gratuito, educación para la prevención de la violencia, un consejo para adolescentes y terapia para jóvenes expuestos a la violencia doméstica.

Servicios

Preescolar gratuito

ECEAP (Programa de Asistencia y Educación para la Primera Infancia) es un programa preescolar gratuito para niños de 3 a 4 años que incluye atención y apoyo adicionales para toda la familia del joven. Cuando toda la familia está conectada a recursos significativos, las posibilidades de éxito del niño mejoran enormemente. 

Terapia de salud mental

Los servicios de salud mental informados sobre el trauma están disponibles para jóvenes de hasta 18 años que hayan experimentado directa o indirectamente violencia doméstica. Ofrecemos terapia con bandeja de arena y juego basado en el trauma, así como EMDR.

Prevención de la violencia juvenil

To foster healthy relationships and prevent future violence, we engage with youth in a variety of ways, including healthy relationship curriculum, leadership development, self-care, and community building at our Transformations Camp and Self-Care Summit events.

Violencia doméstica y niños

Según el Distrito de Salud Regional de Spokane:

  • 1 de cada 3 jóvenes sufre abuso verbal en su familia
  • 1 de cada 5 jóvenes fue testigo de abuso entre adultos más de una vez
  • 1 de cada 5 jóvenes ha sido abusado por un adulto
  • 1 de cada 10 jóvenes sufre violencia de pareja
  • Más de 2.000 niños están documentados como testigos de un delito relacionado con violencia doméstica
  • 1.490 niños fueron identificados como víctimas en incidentes relacionados con violencia doméstica
  • Estas cifras subestiman la exposición real debido a inconsistencias en el seguimiento y la subregistro.
