Provides confidential services with accurate, nonjudgmental information Values your knowledge Welcomes your input Respects your opinion Works with you from a position of your strengths to address your health concerns in a meaningful way
Why Students Come?-There are many reasons why students come to the Youth Health Centre. Mainly it is a safe and quiet place to come and discuss anything at all. Everything we talk about is confidential (private). You can talk to Vicki Caines if you are:
Feeling sad, confused Feeling angry or stressed Having relationships issues Having problems at home Need condoms, pregnancy testing Sex/sexuality questions Worried about dating violence Problems with alcohol, smoking and other substances Just need to talk Want LGBTQ support
Where?-Room C122 next to the Main Office When?-My schedule is posted on the door window of the YHC. Students are encouraged to come at a time that doesn’t interfere with your class but if you do come during a class time, I will give you a timed attendance note to be excused. I will be here most days but I also sit on community committees, assist at immunization clinics and attend Public Health meetings. When I am here my door is open.
