Healthy Minds at Work
Baltimore, MD

Disconnected youth --16-22 year-olds who are not in school and unemployed -- will receive comprehensive mental health services in a non-traditional setting: a job readiness program in urban East Baltimore. The YO (Youth Opportunity) Center will train staff to overcome pervasive stigma about mental illness, to identify signs of mental health concerns and to refer members to receive treatment on site. All newly enrolled youth will participate in mental health screening and receive care from a social worker or psychiatrist within the Center's family atmosphere. Peer leaders will help combat stigma and increase dialogue on mental health issues.
