The Concurrent Youth Hub is a warm and welcoming space where harm reduction meets traditional substance use treatment. Youth are celebrated and cared for based on who they are, regardless of abstinence or other complexities. Young people can be supported either on a short-term or long-term basis and are encouraged to set their own goals to improve their safety and/or overall health and wellness. The Hub provides a wrap-around model of support that takes a biopsychosocial approach to healthcare, and is focused on supporting youth facing a high degree of complex intersecting challenges. The Hub offers diverse services to youth so that every aspect of their needs is met in order to improve their health outcomes.
The Concurrent Youth Hub recognizes that for youth with a high degree of complexity, substance use treatment cannot occur absent of integrated mental health care, case management and basic needs supports. Youth who require psychiatric care are able to receive assessment and medication needed to treat underlying mental health conditions. Often these needs can be further complicated by additional neurodiversity such as Autism or Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. The hub is inclusive of youth with these concurrent diagnoses to ensure that no young people are being excluded from service due to complexity. This treatment model is unique in our community, in that it provides a “one-stop-shop” where various needs can be met in one low-barrier environment.
