Support Youth Mental Health in Jefferson County

Supporting Children, Teens, and Families After the Evergreen Tragedy

The tragedy at Evergreen High School has left many students, parents, and families grieving and in need of support. Jefferson Center clinicians and staff are in the community to provide comfort, counseling, and connection for anyone impacted. You are not alone.

Supporting a child’s mental health means helping them reach emotional milestones, build resilience, and find hope in difficult times. Jefferson Center offers services designed to meet families where they are, including:

• Child, Youth & Family Services – individual, group, and family therapy to support children through anxiety, depression, and trauma.
• School-Based Services – clinicians embedded in schools to provide counseling and crisis response.
• Trauma Systems Therapy & Crisis Stabilization – programs to help youth heal after experiencing trauma.
• Family FlexCare Team – comprehensive care that strengthens families through challenges.

Donations to this Word of Thanks microgiving campaign will be used to support Jefferson Center's work in the Evergreen community as well as their work to support families and children facing mental health needs across Jefferson County.
