Building Youth Resiliency and Community Vitality Within Montreal’s English Language Population : The YES Experience with Youth Seeking to Improve their Work Situation

In response to an increase in the number of clients’ experiencing mental health challenges in the course of their job search YES (through CHSSN) has commissioned this report to establish an evidence-based profile of the youth that they serve. At the present time, YES uses limited resources to offer additional support through a focus group that is designed for clients who are experiencing symptoms such as decreased motivation, anxiety, social isolation and diminished confidence in dealing with the transition process.
