About this service

The CSU is a secure, Level V short term six bed crisis intervention program for females of all nations aged 12-17 years. The CSU works in partnership with Mobile Crisis Team and StreetReach to provide a safe place for females who are identified as at risk of sexual exploitation. This unit offers a safe, nurturing non-punitive environment for youth that are feeling overwhelmed, stressed or unable to cope. A stay in the unit is usually no longer than five to ten days and should only be long enough to stabilize the youth. A clinical follow- up facilitator as well as StreetReach and Social Worker will assist the youth in the discharge process and make any necessary referrals to help with future planning.

Examples of crises to which we handle and deal with are:

  • AWOL Tendancies
  • Drug/Alcohol Abuse
  • Sexual Exploitation

Admissions are based on a youth having been assessed by StreetReach for risk of sexual exploitation.

Who can use it?

Indigenous girls 12-17 years of age
