R U Okay Day is every day at Youth Projects

With R U OK Day just around the corner, we are reminded to check in with our mates and continue the conversation. Here at Youth Projects, we believe that we should be asking our peers regularly, and know how to respond if someone isn’t doing too well. We thrive on creating a judgment-free approach, meeting people where they are at, and client-centered servicing, and thought we would share what works for us. Read more
