    Youth MOVE Discord (YM Discord) is a statewide virtual program for high schoolers throughout Idaho to provide peer emotional support to one another and practice mental health advocacy.  YM Discord is meant for high schoolers who live in rural areas, teens who prefer connecting virtually or can’t attend our in-person Youth MOVE groups for other reasons.

    Youth MOVE Social Support

    4:00 PM-5:30 PM
    June 14, 2023

    Youth MOVE Social Support is peer-led by a trained teen leader with support and supervision from a Families and Youth of Idaho staff member. This wellness group is aimed towards high schoolers who identify as neurodivergent, as well as other teens who would benefit from the group. Teens will have opportunities to practice self-advocacy, discuss mental health, and form positive social connections. Group meetings will involve lessons, discussions, and educational activities as well as recreation and games. We intend to form a tight-knit community of friends who can help each other through the transitions of adolescence and young adulthood.

    This group meets at the Boise Brick House which is located at the Families and Youth of Idaho office at 704 N 7th Street Boise ID, 83702. Snacks and drinks will be provided.

    If you are interested in the group, contact the Youth Programs Coordinator Emma James at ejames@fyidaho.org
