Nurturing Children and Youth
The goal of all of our services for youth and families is to build the resilience, skills, and positive support systems necessary to promote healthy development for children, youth, and those transitioning to adulthood.
Places for People provides trauma-informed, strength-based, and family-centered services to children, youth, and families in St. Louis City and County.
Our goal in all of our programs for youth and families is to assist children, youth and adolescents who exhibit behavioral disorders by connecting them with proper resources, and to address the surrounding family/environmental issues that pose a threat to a healthy process of transitioning through youth to adulthood.
We offer an array of interventions to ensure that youths and their families are receiving the appropriate level of assistance for their specific situations.
We use all of the youth’s natural resources to affect positive change.
Our dedicated and qualified staff meet youth where they are without judgement or criticism, with a focus on healthy lifestyles and alternatives to support sustainable recovery. Places for People is committed to a trauma-informed approach, and employees are encouraged to develop their cultural competence.
