Community Support Team
The Community Support Team (CST) provides clinical counseling and support services to at risk youth in conflict with the law and their families in the Greater Toronto Area. The philosophy of the CST is one of optimism, with the belief that youth and their families are capable of positive change when given access to appropriate and adequate resources.
The service is community based and collaborates with other service providers including Probation Services and schools to assist in rehabilitation and reintegration. The youth and family's immediate and long-term needs are addressed though the delivery of a comprehensive assessment and a multidisciplinary team that includes a consulting psychologist and psychiatrist.
The Community Support Team's approach is a mobile, community outreach service and efforts are made to ensure continuity of service, regardless of the youth's location.
