For renewed funding for the Bronx Youth Center Director of Clinical Supervision who, along with the team of 5 social workers under her supervision, provides individualized counseling and conducts supportive therapeutic groups for youth ages 12-24, helping them to replicate The Door’s model more fully at this expanded South Bronx site. This role has transformed their work at the BYC, better ensuring that the youths there have consistent and immediate access to mental health support. Having a Director-level role with LCSW licensure and clinical supervision experience has made it much easier to hire social workers at entry-levels, as they have an experienced manager on hand who can provide targeted supervision and training. This has enabled the BYC mental health team to significantly increase their support to the area’s young people, including an increased number of individual and group therapy sessions. The Director and her team provide a variety of crucial services, including individualized counseling, crisis intervention, supportive group services, engagement outreach, wellness checks, case management, referral support, and conflict mediation.
