By offering a comprehensive resource, there can be an increase in access to support for youth and families, ensuring they can be assisted in finding the appropriate services for mental health, healthcare, and other critical areas.

In addition, this Directory allows organizations to connect with like-minded entities in their community. By fostering partnerships and encouraging information sharing, organizations can strengthen their efforts, share best practices, and expand their reach within the community.

Overall, this Directory is designed to build a supportive ecosystem

Empowering Providers, Empowering Youth
Am I a Provider?

In this directory, Providers encompass not only licensed medical and mental health professionals, but also organizations that serve youth and their families with wraparound services that foster stability and well-being. These services could involve mentoring, mental health support, conflict resolution, and community engagement.

Being a provider requires being connected and engaged with other providers and members of the community. Take an active role by attending one of our upcoming in-person workshops.

Providing quality community services involves staying informed about the severity of gun violence in Marion County and where areas of need exist, as well as efforts to eliminate them.
