The SAFE Program continues to accept referrals on an ongoing basis.
SAFE prioritizes referrals who:
- Are youth and families at-risk of, actively involved in, or targeted, by gang or related criminal behaviour;
- Reside in Surrey;
- Have moderate or higher level of mental health severity, risk, and/or substance use needs;
- Are involved/identified/in need of multiple supports (MCFD/CYMH, Fraser Health, School District, community agencies).
Most sessions are delivered via Counselling Psychology Master's practicum students under the supervision of a Clinical Counsellor.
If you are a client or professional referring to this program, contact the research assistant, Michelle Hubble, at safe_admin@sfu.ca with "SAFE Referral" in the subject line.
