TIC+ (Teens In Crisis)
Pending display name
We believe that every child and young person matters. Nobody should deal with mental health issues alone; it's good to talk, and to be heard whatever the issues. Talking it through will help.
About this cause
We provide support and counselling for young people (9-21) struggling with mental health issues. We also provide family support that enables the whole family to deal with the heartache that poor mental health can cause within the family unit. By supporting families and young people, we are creating a healthier and stronger community. The positive impact has a ripple effect far beyond the individual household.
How this cause brings people in the community together
TIC+ have been able to provide online/FaceTime/WhatsApp and telephone sessions with young people during coronavirus. In April 2020 we delivered 453 online text-chat counselling sessions; 493 video counselling sessions; 318 telephone counselling sessions; and numerous parent chats through the parent helpline. This is a crucial service to help parents through the troubles.
