Project Adolescent Support

Mental and Emotional Support and Rehabilitation for Abused Adolescents

The What & Why

True Self is dedicated to helping adolescents, teens and young adults that have experienced abuse, neglect and other forms of emotional and psychological trauma. Children that experience these conditions in their lives are more likely to suffer from depression, addiction, suicide or other less than desirable conditions.  Research shows that rehabilitation from these experiences is best cultivated by providing a safe environment, reframing the experience and teaching people how to reconnect with others in a healthy way. 

 

The True Self Method is designed with this in mind. However, in order to reach and support this population, we intend to provide housing and mentorship opportunities.
