Western Idaho Youth Support Center
Providing youth a safe path forward.
The Western Idaho Youth Support Center will help set youth in crisis on a path to healing. The center is open 24 hours a day, every day to provide youth ages 10-17* FREE services any time day or night. The support center provides a place for youth to rest, eat, recreate, and get the help they need for up to 23 hours and 59 minutes during a crisis situation. Whatever the situation, the center will admit anyone who is medically stable.
Once at the center, youth will meet with a compassionate team of mental health professionals, and receive services such as crisis intervention services, a medical screening, mental health assessment, and community-based referrals.
*Families with youth ages 5-9 may receive resources, but cannot currently be admitted for full assessment and stabilization services.
