Free counselling for kids and teens is available at the library. A counsellor from Navera Community Connections will provide support for issues with mental health, relationships and other challenges.
Counselling sessions at the library are booked by visiting the Counselling Connect Sask website and selecting Rapid Access Counselling for Children, Youth and their Caregivers. Sessions can be in-person, phone or over video. Drop-in appointments are available when the timeslot has not already been pre-booked.
GUIDELINES
- Kids under 14 need to have a waiver signed by their parent before they can see a counsellor.
- Kids 14 – 17 can sign their own consent form.
