Gisda: Providing Comprehensive Support and Opportunities to Young People in North Wales
Gisda is a charitable organization that has been providing comprehensive support and opportunities to young people between the ages of 16 and 25 who live in North Wales. The organization was established with the aim of empowering young people by providing them with the necessary tools, resources, and guidance to help them achieve their full potential.
At Gisda, we understand that young people face a range of challenges as they transition from adolescence into adulthood. These challenges can include finding employment, accessing education or training opportunities, dealing with mental health issues or substance abuse problems, or simply struggling to find their place in society. Our mission is to provide a safe and supportive environment where young people can access the resources they need to overcome these challenges and build a brighter future for themselves.
One of our core services is our housing support program. We offer affordable accommodation options for young people who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. Our team works closely with each individual resident to develop a personalized plan that addresses their specific needs and goals. This may include assistance with finding employment or education opportunities, accessing healthcare services, developing life skills such as budgeting or cooking, or simply providing emotional support during difficult times.
In addition to our housing support program, we also offer a range of other services designed to help young people succeed. These include:
- Education and Training: We work closely with local schools, colleges, universities, and training providers to help young people access educational opportunities that will enable them to achieve their career goals.
- Employment Support: Our team provides one-on-one coaching sessions designed to help individuals identify job opportunities that match their skills and interests.
- Mental Health Support: We have trained counselors on staff who provide confidential counseling sessions for individuals struggling with mental health issues such as anxiety or depression.
- Substance Abuse Support: For those struggling with addiction issues related substances like drugs & alcohol, we offer a range of support services including counseling, group therapy sessions, and referrals to specialist treatment providers.
At Gisda, we believe that every young person deserves the opportunity to achieve their full potential. We are committed to providing comprehensive support and opportunities that enable young people in North Wales to build a brighter future for themselves.
