In this episode of The MY House Podcast, Michelle Overstreet and Isaac Smolden bring you up to speed on the exciting growth and new initiatives at the Carson-Cottle Center. They discuss the latest grants that have been secured, which will enable MY House to provide much-needed peer support services for young adults aged 18 to 25.
This is a huge step forward in offering specialised care tailored to the unique needs of this age group, rather than lumping them in with older adults facing different challenges. Michelle shares the incredible journey of True North Recovery, an organisation that started within MY House and has now become a significant partner, employing many former clients who are in recovery themselves. The episode highlights the vital role of peer support in making recovery relatable and effective for younger individuals.
You'll also hear about the ongoing construction at the Carson-Cottle Center, which promises to bring a host of new facilities, including additional beds for housing and crisis stabilisation services. Michelle and Isaac reflect on the importance of these developments in addressing the complex needs of youth facing homelessness, addiction, and trauma. The conversation is both informative and inspiring, shedding light on the transformative impact of community support and dedicated services.
