We’re Here to Help
Raising a teen isn’t easy. As kids grow and begin the transition to adulthood, relationships shift. Miscommunication, emotional distance, or conflict can cause stress in even the most loving homes. At YMCA Safe Place Services, we’re here to help families navigate these challenges—no matter what form your family takes.
Our staff are available 24/7 to support families dealing with:
- Anger or behavioral issues
- Verbal or physical abuse
- Drug or alcohol use
- Communication breakdowns
- Crisis or trauma
- Family instability or separation
Whether you’re a parent, guardian, grandparent, foster caregiver, sibling, or other trusted adult, we’ll work with you to reconnect and rebuild relationships in a safe and supportive environment.
We serve all family compositions, including those with absent parents, blended households, adoptive families, and LGBTQ caregivers.
Building Skills. Rebuilding Trust.
Through our programs, youth gain confidence, make healthy choices, and engage with positive adult role models. Services such as GED prep, job readiness support, and life skills training help teens and young adults build a path toward independence—with your partnership along the way.
Need Help Now?
If you’re struggling to relate to or communicate with your teen, call or text 502-635-5233. Your call is confidential, and our team is here to guide you toward a safer, healthier future—together.
