C-CHANGE
C-Change is an intensive, community-based mental health program that serves youth who are commercially sexually exploited or at risk of exploitation.
LIVING FREE FROM EXPLOITATION
Intensive support and therapy can be an important step in healing if you've been through sexual exploitation.
Here’s how we can help:
​

Setting Boundaries
Therapeutic care isn’t just about dealing with the past; it’s also about helping you think about your future. Our team can support you in setting goals and figuring out what you want your life to look like moving forward. The C-Change team can help you start to heal, feel stronger, and regain control over your life. It’s a way to make sure you’re supported and that you’re not alone.
HOW WE WORK
We work as a team with youth to develop and pursue their goals and support them through difficult times. Through offering a relationship where staff expect nothing in exchange, we counter the message that all relationships are transactional. This creates an opportunity for youth to build trust and develop their sense of agency. Young people begin to see themselves as worthy of care and respect and learn the skills needed to advocate for themselves.
​
We support young people on things that are most important to them, whether it’s finding a safe living situation, managing difficult feelings, or understanding their experiences. Sometimes youth want support preparing for a difficult day such as navigating conflict, being kicked out, attending a court appearance, navigating school enrollment, or a job interview.
Together we help youth live healthier lives, free from victimization.
