Ask any teen what is bothering them, and you'll get a range of responses: problems with friends, not getting along with parents and family, being stressed out about money and their future--not to mention teens who face pregnancy, addiction, abusive relationships, and depression. Circumstances such as these affect teenagers on a daily basis and have a lasting impact on their health and well-being. Providing teens with a safe place to share, working with them to problem solve, and helping them to make positive, healthy choices in the future is the collective aim of adolescent providers.
