The mission of Ferndale Youth Assistance is to strengthen youth and families and prevent and reduce delinquency, neglect and abuse through volunteer involvement.

Ferndale Youth Assistance offers free, voluntary and confidential counseling all year long to Ferndale School District families (including the cities of Ferndale, Oak Park, Pleasant Ridge and The Charter Township of Royal Oak) We take referrals from parents, teachers, police or anyone concerned about a child's welfare.

 

Mentors Plus    Print this Section  Minimize/Maximize this Section

A little time each week. A little caring. A little piece of yourself, reserved for a special kid who n eeds it. And Mentors Plus, to put the two of you together and help you learn from each other.

Mentors Plus– People Listening, Understanding and Sharing. This program pairs a trained adult volunteer with a young person in a one-on-one basis to provide adult companionship and guidance to a young person in need of a positive role model. We need more adult volunteers to match with the many children we have on a waiting list. Please call our office at (248) 586-8700 to talk about volunteer opportunities in this program.
