Through their Connections to Care Initiative, previously funded by The Cummings Fund, they have gathered important insights into the current state of youth mental health, and this staff position is their next logical step to enhance their continuum of mental health supports for vulnerable young people. The Door works to empower young people aged 12-24 to better reach their full potential by providing comprehensive youth development services including health care, mental health counseling, and education supports within a diverse and caring environment, mostly under their one roof, free of charge.
